This book argues that the intersection between intelligence, diplomacy, and national security is essential for the success of African statecraft.

The book demonstrates that African states can enhance national and regional security in a complex global security environment by prudently harnessing intelligence insights and diplomatic relationships. Under certain conditions of national security, intelligence and diplomacy can be leveraged for socio-economic development. However, the book also shows that challenges such as resource constraints, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and political sensitivities can hinder seamless intelligence integration and diplomatic coordination, thereby undermining national security.

This book will be an important read for scholars, researchers and practitioners of African security studies, international relations, and political sciences, development, as well as for policymakers and decision-makers.
