Fulfills the US History requirement for History MajorsThis course is a survey history of the U.S. Intelligence Community that is grounded in the autobiographies of America's most famous (and infamous) spies. The task is to learn American Intelligence History by reading spies in their own words. Some spies wrote to expose government censorship, others to justify their work for enemy nations, and others to assuage their own egos or bolster their bank accounts. The course will look at the ethics of spying, the operations compromised, and the way many spies have attempted to philosophically justify their actions.
