Many people question about the way to define EI instruments and objectives in a clear and unambiguous manner. Often, indeed, this skepticism hides the refuse to acknowledge the paramount importance of the economic and financial issues into the global world of intelligence. Many Intelligence scholars, in fact, continue to reject the “globalization” of the Intelligence, as the enlargement of both its spectrum of interest (going from the traditional military and political aspects, to the economical and financial ones, and in perspective towards the medical, physical and astronomical ones), and the geographical areas relevant for the national security (proceeding from the East-West dichotomy to each micro-angles of the world).Due to the global recession, economy and finance constraints “bind” everywhere – in industrialized and developing countries – any public and private functions. Today, in the sovereign and corporate world, the debt stock contracted in the past, and the more and more moderate flow of income seriously limit the exertion of both the full state sovereignty and the management of an optimized business.
