Abstract

Nestanak ravnoteže snaga u međunarodnim odnosima je uvjetovao da tajne operacije postaju značajan instrument suvremene vanjske politike. Zabranom rata kao instrumenta te slabljenjem diplomacije i ekonomskih sankcija zbog bipolarnog poretka su se tajne operacije prometnule u prvu opciju za ostvarivanje nacionalnih interesa neke zemlje u inozemstvu. Iako tajne operacije neupitno krše moralna i etička načela međunarodnih odnosa, krajem drugog svjetskog rata su tajne operacije institucionalizirane te su zakonskim okvirom određena njihova djelovanja. Odmah nakon institucionalizacije su velike sile na čelu s SAD-om krenule u provedbu prikrivenih djelovanja diljem svijeta. Operacija Ajax je bila prva uspješna tajna akcija koja je postavila okvir za daljnju provedbu diljem svijeta. U razdoblju Hladnog rata su tajne operacije postala norma ponašanja u međunarodnim odnosima. 21. stoljeće je donijelo promjene na tehnološkom polju te promijenilo metodu provedbe tajnih operacija, ali zbog terorizma, organiziranog kriminala i ostalih ugroza u posthladnoratovskom svijetu još uvijek postoji potreba za ovim instrumentom vanjske politike.

Abstract (english)

The lack of balance of power in international relations is conditioned by the fact that covert operations become a significant instrument of contemporary foreign policy. Prohibition of war as an instrument and weakening of diplomacy and economic sanctions because of bipolarity have have made covert operations the first option for achieving national interests of a country abroad. Although covert operations undoubtedly violate the moral and ethical principles of international relations, at the end of the Second World War covert operations were institutionalized and their legal framework determined their actions. Immediately after institutionalization, the great powers led the US embarked on the implementation of covert action around the world. Operation Ajax was the first successful covert action that set a framework for further implementation around the world. In the Cold War period, covert operations became the standard of conduct in international relations. The 21st century has brought changes in the technology field and changed the method of carrying out covert operations, but there is still a need for this foreign policy instrument because of terrorism, organized crime and other post-Cold War threats.
