Description
"There's Something Happening Here looks inside the FBI's COINTELPROs against White Hate groups and the New Left to explore how agents dealt with the hundreds of individuals and organizations labeled as subversive threats. Rather than simply attributing these activities to the idiosyncratic concerns of longtime director J. Edgar Hoover, Cunningham focuses on the complex organizational dynamics that generated literally thousands of COINTELPRO actions.
Description
His account shows how - and why - the inner workings of the programs led to outcomes that often seemed to lack any overriding logic; it also measures the impact the Bureau's massive campaign of repression had on its targets. The lessons of this era have considerable relevance today, and Cunningham extends his analysis to the FBI's often controversial recent actions to map the influence of the COINTELPRO legacy on contemporary debates over national security and civil liberties."--BOOK JACKET.
