This essay discusses engagement against state secrecy and engagement
for secrecy, free from interference. By exploring divisions introduced by state
secrecy (through exclusion, subjection and oppression), it identifies the distortions
of equal participation in political communities. The author introduces the
notion of pata-politics in order to describe the false relation to the secrecy effect.
Furthermore, the text examines key issues of today’s intelligence studies (such
as democratic intelligence oversight and the balance of powers doctrine), with
special emphasis on the possible limits of a liberal approach. Additionally, the
author elaborates a metacritique of the framework in which the private sphere
is one-sidedly described as a victim of wrong interference by state institutions.
