Since the Cold War, national security has become a vital issue in the process of developing the global system in 21st century. As the international environment has changed from one generation to another, the concept of security becomes various. The phenomenon of the integration and interdependence between nations is becoming more and more obvious. Since globalization brings new threats and challenges about security issues, the relation between intelligence and national security is getting closer. For every nation in the world, it is crucial to protect national security through the exchange of intelligence under mutual trust and the means of interdependence and cooperation.
This thesis aims to analyze the intelligence sharing mechanism on the aerial reconnaissance between the R.O.C. and the U.S.A. and what implications it has for us from 1945 to 1978, reflecting on its influence on national security during the period between World War II and the termination of U.S.-R.O.C. official diplomatic relation. Through the literature reviews and the examination of Interdependence Theory, this thesis generated four analytical assumptions in the chapter 4.
Through the case studies, textual analysis, and interviews, the thesis ultimately suggests the possibility and the development tendency of intelligence exchange between the U.S.A. and the R.O.C. under the interdependence mechanism.
