Abstract
Intelligence had a different importance in decision-making depending
on the historical period of time we are referring to. Nonetheless, the study of
secret intelligence for the historiographical development became more relevant
in the past decades, after the end of the Cold War. With the study of intelligence,
the historical perspectives and debates started to have different shapes and
develop more complex conclusions, revealing, thanks to a more comprehensive
analysis, aspects otherwise difficult to understand in the historical context. An
appropriate example would be the study of the Second World War.
Keywords: intelligence, historiography, decision-making, secret
information, analysis.
