Drawing on previously unseen material and rigorous research, The History Thieves reveals how a complex bureaucratic machine has grown up around the British state, allowing governments to evade accountability and their secrets to be buried."--Cover Výrazy tezauru státní tajemství * tajná služba * vláda * politická odpovědnost * veřejná bezpečnost * Spojené království * 2. polovina 20. století Klasifikační znaky 3231 - Informace a zpracování informací 0431 - Politický život a bezpečnost veřejnosti ISBN 978-1-84627-583-8 Copy count 1, currently available 1 URL The history thieves (náhled do publikace / Google Books) Document kind Monografie
