    In conversation: Luca Trenta and Elspeth Van Veeren on secrecy and assassinations

    In the next in our new series of SPIN podcast episodes, Dr. Luca Trenta discusses the history of US government involvement in assassinations and targeted killings from the Cold War era to today. Dr Trenta shares insights from his research and latest book including the evolving justifications around labels like "assassination" versus "targeted killing", the expanding legal interpretations of self-defense to include imminent and continuing threats, and the role of secrecy in both carrying out operations and publicly legitimizing certain covert actions over time. The discussion provides useful context for understanding the normalisation of practices like targeted killings and how this intersects with issues of secrecy, legal precedents, and international relations.

    Talk: O is for Omertà with Kate Thornton

    Kate Thornton, our first graduate podcaster, reads her entry from SPIN's A-Z series: O is for Omertà. This talk explains how omertà, which literally means silence, has developed into a code of secrecy and loyalty for mafia members. By keeping their criminal activities secret from authorities, the mafia is able to operate freely and influence society. The code of omertà ensures solidarity and cooperation between mafiosi by binding them through shared secrets. Rather than relying on violence, the mafia cultivates deeper loyalty among its members through the mutual dependence created by omertà. This culture of silence has historically woven the mafia's power tightly within Italian communities. Part of SPIN's A-Z Series.

    Book Launch: The Covert Colour Line by Dr. Oliver Kearns

    In this episode, SPIN member Dr. Oliver Kearns presents the findings from his new book, The Covert Colour Line. Oliver argues that postwar Western intelligence represents an emergency response to anti-colonialism. As European empires collapsed, intelligence analysts scrambled to come up with ways of studying new independent governments and populations, while still defending the right of the US and Britain to dictate Middle Eastern affairs.  During this recording, Oliver presents some key ideas from The Covert Colour Line and hears from Dr. Claudia Hillebrand (University of Cardiff) and Dr. Shuk Ying Chan (UCL), who offer their thoughts on the book and its contributions.  There is also a brief Q&A with the author at the end of the recording.
