English abstract

In intelligence, epistemology is the study of threat knowledge and how threat is understood in the field of intelligence analysis. Most definitions of intelligence activity do not take into account the fact that the epistemic normative status of the analyzed information is knowledge and not an inferior alternative. The counter-arguments to the epistemological status of intelligence activity are their action-oriented purpose, and their future-oriented content.

Romanian abstract

În activitatea de intelligence, epistemologia este studiul cunoașterii amenințării și a modului în care se înțelege amenințarea în domeniul analizei intelligence. Majoritatea definițiilor activității de intelligence nu iau în considerare faptul că statutul normativ epistemic al informațiilor analizate este cunoașterea și nu o alternativă inferioară. Contra-argumentele la statutul epistemologic al activității de intelligence sunt scopul acestora orientat spre acțiune, și conținutul lor orientat spre viitor.
