Summary

While many scholars and experts posit a like-mindedness between the US and the UK when it comes to national security policy, Douglass Cassel argues that the differences outweigh the similarities and that the UK model, while it overreaches in some respects, notably surveillance policies, is more “civilized, or liberal,” than in the United States. Cassel addresses the causes of these differences as well as the ways in which the relationship between the UK and US intelligence agencies exploits these differences.
