Transformation of the Intelligence Cycle in the Context of Postmodern Management Philosophy

Although the concept of postmodernism, which corresponds to the after modernism in the linguistic context, first emerged in the field of art and architecture, it greatly influenced the social dynamics and public/private institutions after a short time. In this respect it is not surprising that the postmodern management approach, which has a great impact on the world, has also influenced intelligence studies, which are of great importance for the survival of states. The intelligence cycle, which revealed the general working order of a standard intelligence service at the end of the Cold War period, is one of the subjects affected by the postmodern management trend in this context. In this context, the basic research question is to what extent the postmodern management paradigm affects the stages that make up the intelligence cycle (actor, interaction, quantity of activities...). When the intelligence cycle emerged, it was accepted as a general and schematic projection of the intelligence gathering process. The classical intelligence cycle, which carries the traces of the one best way view of the modernist perspective and has been accepted for a long time, is out of date according to many researchers. The one-way and stereotyped stages of the classical intelligence cycle are far from the fast and flexible
variations needed today. The new model proposals that emerged in the current situation where the classical intelligence cycle has been questioned mostly contain the traces of postmodern management philosophy. The new intelligence cycle models, which are free from a one-way relation, are flexible, can be intervened at any time, can adapt to changing environmental conditions, and do not have a rigid hierarchy, represent a break from the modernist management approach. As a matter of fact, the argument of the study is that the classical intelligence cycle was conceptualized in line with the modern management approach, while the contemporary intelligence cycle was shaped in line with the defenses of the postmodern management paradigm. In this context, the aim of the study is to reveal the relevance of contemporary intelligence cycle variations with the postmodern management paradigm

Postmodern Yönetim Felsefesi Bağlamında İstihbarat Çarkının Dönüşümü

Yıl 2022, Cilt: 18 Sayı: 1, 99 - 113, 29.06.2022

Öz

Linguistik bağlamda modernizm sonrasına karşılık gelen postmodernizm kavramı her ne kadar ilk olarak sanat ve mimari alanında ortaya çıksa da kısa bir süre sonra sosyal dinamikleri ve kamusal/özel kurumları büyük ölçüde etkilemiştir. Bu açıdan dünya nezdinde büyük yankı uyandıran postmodern yönetim anlayışının, devletlerin bekası için büyük önem teşkil eden istihbarat çalışmalarını da etkilemiş olması şaşırtıcı değildir. Soğuk Savaş döneminin sonlarında standart bir istihbarat servisinin genel çalışma düzenini ortaya koyan istihbarat çarkı, bu bağlamda postmodern yönetim akımından etkilenen öznelerden biridir. Bu bağlamda postmodern yönetim paradigmasının istihbarat çarkını meydana getiren aşamaları hangi ölçüde (aktör, etkileşim, faaliyetlerin niceliği…) etkilediği temel araştırma sorusunu teşkil etmektedir. İstihbarat çarkı ortaya çıktığı dönemde istihbarat toplama sürecinin genel ve şematik bir izdüşümü olarak kabul görmüştür. Modernist bakış açısının en iyi tek yol (one best way) görüşünün izlerini bünyesinde taşıyan ve uzun süre boyunca kabul gören klasik istihbarat çarkı, birçok araştırmacıya göre güncelliğini yitirmiştir. Klasik istihbarat çarkının tek yönlü ve kalıplaşmış aşamaları günümüzde ihtiyaç duyulan hızlı ve esnek varyasyonlardan uzaktır. Klasik istihbarat çarkının sorgulanmaya başlandığı güncel durumda ortaya çıkan yeni model önerileri, çoğunlukla postmodern yönetim felsefesinin izlerini bünyesinde barındırmaktadır. Tek yönlü bir ilişkiden azade, esnek, her aşamaya her an müdahalenin olabileceği, değişken çevre koşullarına uyum sağlayabilen, katı bir hiyerarşinin olmadığı yeni istihbarat çarkı modelleri modernist yönetim yaklaşımından bir kopuşu temsil etmektedir. Nitekim çalışmanın argümanı klasik istihbarat çarkının modern yönetim anlayışı doğrultusunda kavramsallaştığı, çağdaş istihbarat çarkının ise postmodern yönetim paradigması savunuları doğrultusunda şekillendiğidir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı çağdaş istihbarat çarkı varyasyonlarının postmodern yönetim paradigması ile olan ilişkiselliğini gözler önüne sermektir.
