This collection gathers the essential works of Professor Peter Dale Scott, poet, diplomat, & the foremost scholar of American deep politics. A former Canadian diplomat & UC Berkeley professor, Scott pioneered the concept of "deep politics" to describe the covert networks of intelligence agencies, organized crime, & financial power that operate beneath the surface of official government. His books trace a continuous thread from the JFK assassination & the CIA's first deep state revolt against the White House, through the global heroin & cocaine pipelines that funded covert operations in Southeast Asia & Central America, to the road to 9/11 & the permanent war economy it inaugurated. Together they constitute the most rigorous scholarly framework available for understanding how postwar American foreign policy has been shaped not by elected officials but by the hidden networks that outlast any administration.
