CARCAMO, Rodrigo. Chile: considerations on civil control of military intelligence. URVIO [online]. 2017, n.21, pp.70-86. ISSN 1390-4299.  https://doi.org/10.17141/urvio.21.2017.2956.

Intelligence constitutes a key aspect in the security policy of the States, both for the civil controls to which it must be subject, which will ensure the stability of democracy; as for its technical and operational contribution to other areas that have taken relevance in the globalized world. This paper is an exploratory review of the concepts that apply to the subject of control that the civil power should apply on the military intelligence function, focused on the case of Chile and its recent State Intelligence System, established and regulated from the year 2004 by Law 19.974. Also, it is intended to make explicit some deficiencies in the intelligence model, in general, and in military intelligence, in particular, focused on the poor articulation of the system, parliamentary control and its development against new threats.
