Essay Prompt Question: Which is the more dangerous problem for intelligence analysis: individual analytical bias, or institutional and political pressure on analysts? Write a well-developed essay that addresses the following: Part 1: Thesis and Key Characteristics State your position clearly in your opening sentence. Then identify what makes your chosen problem (individual bias or institutional/political pressure) particularly dangerous to sound analysis. Part 2: Case AnalysisApply your position to at least one specific intelligence case. You may use your own discussion board topic, the hunt for bin Laden (Week 2), or any other well-documented intelligence case covered or referenced in this course. Use specific, concrete details (not just the case name) to support your argument. Part 3: JustificationExplain why your chosen problem presents greater risk than the alternative. What makes it more dangerous, more difficult to prevent, or more consequential for decision-makers? Part 4: CounterargumentsAddress why someone might argue the other problem is more pressing. Acknowledge these concerns, then explain why your position is ultimately stronger. Where possible, illustrate this with a different case than the one you used in Part 2. Writing Guidelines Organization is required: follow the four-part structure above, in order Get straight to the point – no lengthy introductions or conclusions Use specific concepts and terminology from Weeks 1–3 (no need to cite page numbers or timestamps, as this is a closed-book exam) Support your argument with specific, concrete case evidence — not just a case name A “C” essay addresses all four parts clearly in 4 organized paragraphs A “B” essay demonstrates deeper analysis with a well-developed case example An “A” essay shows nuanced understanding, anticipates complexity, and uses course material (the three barrier layers, the INTs, decision advantage) expertly This question is worth 50 points (30% of the midterm grade). A few sentences will not be enough. This essay requires sustained analysis and evidence.
