After Marcos left the country, insurgency in the Philippines was seen as a threat to American interests, and it didn't take us long to spot this list of 307 conference participants. Each name includes an institutional affiliation, showing that the CIA, State Department, Defense Intelligence Agency, USIA, AID, and Rand mingled happily with participants from non- government organizations, academia, and big business. Fletcher professors know how to keep a straight face while referring to this as "pluralism."
Besides the Fletcher School, other conference sponsors were the Asia
Foundation's Center for Asian Pacific Affairs, the Philippines Council for
Foreign Relations, the Academy of ASEAN Law and Jurisprudence, and the
Asia Society. Major funding was provided by the U.S. Information Agency,
the Asia Foundation, and the Henry Luce Foundation.
