Intelligence and security systems of the Kingdom of Norway and Switzerland

Abstract

Intelligence and security systems are one of the key subjects of the national security of all modern states. They are the first line of defense against global challenges and threats that have marked the XXI century. When facing these challenges and threats, both the Kingdom of Norway and Switzerland, the world-respected developed democratic states, seek to establish their own organizational intelligence and security systems in accordance with modern principles. In this paper, the author analyzes the intelligence and security systems of these two European countries, in order to identify and critically examine all aspects of their development, statutory defined cope of work, powers, competencies, as well as established forms of control and supervision by the parliamentary, execurive and judicial authorities.

Obaveštajno-bezbednosni sistemi predstavljaju jedan od ključnih subjekata sistema nacionalne bezbednosti svih savremenih država. Oni su, tako reći, prva linija odbrane od globalnih izazova i pretnji bezbednosti koje obeležavaju XXI vek. U susretu sa tim izazovima i pretnjama i Kraljevina Norveška i Švajcarska, u svetskim okvirima poštovane razvijene demokratske države, nastoje da sopstvene obaveštajno-bezbednosne sisteme organizaciono ustroje po svim modernim principima. U ovom radu ce analiziraju obaveštajno-bezbednosni sistemi ove dve evropske države, s ciljem da se prepoznaju i kritički razmotre svi aspekti njihovog razvoja, zakonom definisan delokrug rada, nadležnosti, ovlašćenja, kao i oblici kontrole i nadzora koje je uspostavila parlamentarna, izvršna i sudska vlast.
