Hi elmat - Wolfowitz & Perle are IN the Defense department.
They have policy positions today. They can TELL people what to do, and make policy. In think tanks, they would be advisers, not decsion makers.

Tehnical oriented, ocassional conservative -

Hudson Insittute

Brookings

Council on Foreign Realtions mostly goes here, but more a talking shop.

Liberal to 'left' (sort of corporate internationalist left, pro-globalization) Policies tend to be leftist domestically and corparatist for rest of world.

***********

Failure of Brookings, CFR, and others to be aware of the post COld War environment & and articulate a coherent and PRACTICAL foreign policy has lead to the the rise of Wolfowitz, Perle and other neo-cons.

After collaspse of the Soviet Union, foreign policy has drifted. Part of this is reasonable, since the situations weren't clear until about mid -1990s. Managing the transition to a free Central Europe was a question mark, Russia under Yeltsin was a bit of a wild card, etc.
