Council on Foreign Relations

Thu Apr 11, 2013 10:33AM GMT

Council on Foreign Relations is more than a think tank. It is indeed a major policy making venue where politicians, major policy advisors and business tycoons meet to shape and form policy. The Council's board members include Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and major corporations.

The earliest origin of the Council stemmed from a working fellowship of about 150 scholars called "The Inquiry" tasked to brief President Woodrow Wilson about options for the postwar world when Germany was defeated.

Today it has about 5,000 members which over its history have included senior serving politicians, more than a dozen Secretaries of State, former national security officers, bankers, lawyers, professors, former CIA members and senior media figures.

All corporate executive members have opportunities to hear distinguished speakers, such as overseas presidents and prime ministers, chairmen and CEOs of multinational corporations, and US
officials and Congressmen.

President and premium members are also entitled to other benefits, including attendance at small, private dinners or receptions with senior American officials and world leaders.
