S. Doc 105-2. Item 996-A. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Chairman. Congress established the Commission on Protecting and Reducing Government Secrecy in Title IX of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1994 and 1995 (Public Law 103-236) to make “comprehensive proposals for reform” that are designed “to reduce the volume of information classified and thereby to strengthen the protection of legitimately classified information,” as well as to improve existing personnel security procedures.

OVNI
Montre que les Etats-Unis ont pris très au sérieux la question des ovnis dès 1945 et ont compris quels intérêts ils auraient à les étudier seuls. Ils s'emploient depuis à en faire leur domaine réservé en appliquant une stratégie de guerre de l'information dont la désinformation est le principal volet. Montre aussi que la France est la seule des grandes puissances à ne pas s'intéresser au sujet.

A Question Of Trust
[This convenience copy of the official report by the UK Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, made available under OGLv3 on a cost-only basis] Modern communications networks can be used by the unscrupulous for purposes ranging from cyber-attack, terrorism and espionage to fraud, kidnap and child sexual exploitation. A successful response to these threats depends on entrusting public bodies with the powers they need to identify and follow suspects in a borderless online world. But trust requires verification. Each intrusive power must be shown to be necessary, clearly spelled out in law, limited in accordance with international human rights standards and subject to demanding and visible safeguards. The current law is fragmented, obscure, under constant challenge and variable in the protections that it affords the innocent. It is time for a clean slate. This Report aims to help Parliament achieve a world-class framework for the regulation of these strong and vital powers.
Histoire de la CIA
La CIA décryptée, de sa fondation en 1947 à nos jours. Cette histoire de la plus célèbre des agences de renseignements américaines nous mène au coeur de son quartier général, à Langley. Grâce à des documents nombreux jusqu'alors inconnus, elle jette un nouvel éclairage sur les opérations de la CIA - de la Pologne à la Hongrie, de l'Indonésie à l'Irangate et de la Baie des Cochons à Guantanamo - et lève en particulier le voile sur son rôle dans la guerre contre le terrorisme, qui s'est étendu très au-delà des actions clandestines. Ses réussites, ses échecs, ses directeurs, ses héros - mais aussi ses salauds - sont ici présentés par l'un des meilleurs spécialistes ...
The SWIFT Affair
The story broke in 2006: Since 9/11, US intelligence services have had access to practically any international money transfer data by infiltrating the SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) network. Banks worldwide transfer money orders and personal customer data through this network. While the surveillance was all-embracing in 2001, it was gradually limited over the course of the last few years. Revealed by the New York Times, the SWIFT affair has had global as well as national implications. While this dissertation first examines the international dimension of the SWIFT surveillance, the analysis mainly focuses on the national repercussions for Switzerland. Arditi Prize 2010 in International Affairs.
