Enjoy this collection of publications published by the Central Intelligence Agency’s Historical Review Program.
The CIA’s Historical Review Program identifies and declassifies collections of documents that detail the Agency’s analysis and activities relating to historically significant topics and events. These collections, centered on a theme or event, are joined with supporting analysis, essays, video, audio, and photographs, and showcased in a booklet plus DVD.
The mission of the Historical Review Program is to broaden access to CIA historical material in order to promote a greater understanding of the scope and context of past actions. Not only does it aim to improve current decision-making and analysis by facilitating reflection on the impacts and effects arising from past foreign policy decisions, it also showcases CIA’s contributions to national security by providing the American public with valuable insight into its inner workings. Finally, it demonstrates the CIA’s commitment to the Open Government Initiative and its three core values: Transparency, Participation, and Collaboration.
