Updated for 2013, The U.S Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook, is your complete guide to important national security law source material, including relevant federal statutes, intelligence authorization acts, executive orders, attorney general and the director of national intelligence guidelines, and proposed significant legislation affecting the U.S. intelligence community. Adding context, this 4th edition also includes the full text of President Obama's 2013 speech at the National Defense University related to national security and the rule of law. This comprehensive collection of the laws, rules and regulations governing the United States Intelligence Community, and the carefully chosen context material is an invaluable resource for lawyers, academics, journalists and corporate officers alike.

This 2013 volume of the U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook marks the 4th Edition of this publication. This year, we continue to develop and strengthen the volume in accord with the feedback we receive from leading national security law practitioners. We have also expanded the editorial team this year, strengthening Andrew Borenes efforts with the formally recognized additions of Adam Pearlman and Harvey Rishikof.

Reviews

"In an era of increased public and international focus on global counterterrorism operations, knowing the law of U.S. national security is vital. Borene, Pearlman & Rishikof's compendium establishes them as leading authorities at this important intersection of law and policy."
--Michael Leiter, former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center

"In print since 2010, The U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook has become an indispensable tool in any government lawyer's library. In each new edition, Borene, Pearlman & Rishikof provide important reference material for informed legal discussion about the balance of national security and civil liberties."
--Jamie Gorelick, former Deputy Attorney General of the United States

"The U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook is the most important privately published compilation of public intelligence community law in our lifetime. It is an essential resource for people who care about national security law."
--U.S. Senator Max Cleland, former member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and former member of the 9/11 Commission

"As a former member of the National Security Council, I commend the ABA for publishing this invaluable collection of essential documents. As the legal aspects of intelligence activity become increasingly important, this handy reference fills a critical need for those in the intelligence community as well as scholars, journalists and others interested in this subject."
--Edwin Meese III, 75th Attorney General of the United States, Ronald Reagan Chair in Public Policy at The Heritage Foundation

"This compendium will be an important resource for journalists who cover the legally complex world of intelligence, where seemingly tiny shifts in law can result in profound changes. Many will surely find a place for it on their desks for ready reference next to the 9/11 Commission Report."
--Pamela Hess, former Intelligence Reporter at Associated Press, and former Pentagon Correspondent at United Press International

"[The] U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook fills a critical gap in helping analyze and understand the legal foundations that help shape -- and implement -- our domestic and foreign intelligence agendas."
--John R. Sano, former Deputy Director of National Clandestine Service at Central Intelligence Agency
