Description: "The Council on Foreign Relations sponsors Independent Task Forces to assess issues of current and critical importance to U.S. foreign policy and provide policy makers with concrete judgments and recommendations.  diverse in backgrounds and perspectives, Task Force members aim to reach a meaningful consensus on policy through private and non-partisan deliberations.  Once launched, Task Forces are independent of CFR and solely responsible for the content of their reports.  Task Forces members are asked to join a consensus signifying that they endorse 'the general policy thrust and judgments reached by the group. though not necessarily every finding and recommendation'.  Each Task Force member also has the option of putting forward an additional or dissenting view.  Members' affiliations are listed for identification purposes only and do not imply institutional endorsement.  Task Force observers participate in discussions, but are not asked to join the consensus."--Publisher's website.
