Bringing together a group of international scholars, The Handbook of African Intelligence Cultures provides the first review of intelligence cultures in every African country.

In doing so, the book examines the state's role, civil society and foreign relations in shaping African countries' intelligence norms, activities and oversight. It also explores the role intelligence services and cultures play in government and civil society.
