ESQUIVEL-TRIANA, Ricardo. Historical method and strategic intelligence in Colombia, 1888-2001. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.26, pp.378-400. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.388.

The objective of this article is to demonstrate Colombia's need for a strategic intelligence based on the contribution of history as discipline for its analysis. It is assumed that history and intelligence, as disciplines, tend to be interdependent because they are widely complementary, even in the methodological. Historiography has significantly contributed to the development of intelligence, not only to reconstruct the evolution of intelligence but also to contextualize strategic intelligence. The absence of the latter in Colombia is explained by the adoption of the French model of "high policing," as well as by a wide historiography that advocates for the cult of formality of the international law by Colombian leaders.
