Summary/Abstract: The US intelligence system has several notable features that differ significantly from other national systems. These particularities were initially observed and exposed by former CIA directors (but not only) during the Cold War years. Later, the functionalities and peculiarities of the American intelligence system began to be the subject of some studies carried out mainly by political science researchers. All these contributions outline what the specialized literature named the American approach to intelligence.
