Description:
"We have assembled an international group of scholars to examine East German foreign intelligence as a historical problem in the intelligence areas of: politics, scientific-technical and military intelligence and counter-intelligence. Themes and topics that run through the volume include the espionage wars; the relationship to the KGB; the successes and failures of the BND [Bundesnachrichtendienst] in East Germany and the reverse; the CIA and the HV A [Hauptverwaltung A]; the HV A in countries outside of West Germany; disinformation; and the role and importance of scientific-technical and military intelligence gathering"--Page 6.
