There's a fundamental tension buried within the heart of the CIA's mission to protect the American people: between democratic accountability and the inherent need for secrecy. Ultimately, it's US citizens who bear the responsibility of staying informed about what the CIA has done and continues to do.
In these 24 engrossing lectures, explore the roles the CIA has played in recent American history, from the eve of the Cold War against communism to the 21st-century War on Terror. You'll delve into some of the most remarkable successes, including the sound intelligence CIA spy planes provided during the Cuban Missile Crisis and the admirable performance of the CIA throughout much of the Vietnam War, as well as historic failures, including the agency's slowness spotting the rise of radical Islamism (including the September 11 attacks).
