FINAL WARNING: Ready to Spring the Trap
There are three headquarters, Washington, D.C. (1156 Fifteenth Street,
NW), Paris (5, rue de Téhéran), and Tokyo (Japan Center for
International Exchange, 4-19-17 Minami-Azabu, Minato-ku). Each
branch has a small full-time staff.
The organization had published a quarterly magazine, called the
Trialogue. The first three issues of the year were devoted to significant
international matters, while the fourth, covered in detail, their annual
meeting. It was discontinued in 1985 to help lower expenses. However,
they do still publish a report about their annual meeting. Their Task
Force Reports usually take up to a year to prepare, and they are always
written by at least three experts, representing each region.
