| Summary: | In the 19th and 20th centuries, intelligence has evolved to a form that can be recognized in the context of
current practice. Unfortunately, many observers misunderstand intelligence. The concepts of critical analysis and
intelligence are often confused, as if they were part of the same activity. Intelligence and analysis are a broader process
of problem solving, involving data collection and analysis, interpretation, speculative considerations on future
developments, patterns, threats, risks and opportunities. Strategic intelligence analysis can be considered as a
particular form of research that deals with any problem at the level of comprehensiveness and detail required to
describe the threats, risks and opportunities, in a useful way for the development of programs and policies. Strategic
intelligence is not a new form of analytic practice, having a tradition of more than two millennia. However, its
acceptance within the modern practice is relatively recent, and its development is, even now, in the 21st century, slow
and uneven. |
