Highlights from CASIS Annual Symposia

Canadian Foreign Intelligence History Project (Carleton)

The Canadian Foreign Intelligence History Project (CFIHP) seeks to encourage the study of the history of the foreign intelligence assessment function in Canada by facilitating the exchange of information among researchers and providing a forum for formal and informal collaboration through workshops and conferences.

This collaborative effort will provide a foundation for the greater integration of the history of intelligence assessment into the broader study of Canadian foreign and defence policy in order to inform students, scholars and policy-makers.

CASIS Board Member Thomas Juneau has published a paper on Iran that will be of interest to those tracking Iran’s ambitions as a regional power. The main argument of the report is that Iran is not a rising regional hegemon but rather a mid-sized regional power frustrated at not reaching its ambitions. The report is a synthesis of some of the main elements of Thomas’s book, Squandered Opportunity: Neoclassical Realism and Iranian Foreign Policy, from Stanford University Press.
