Trilateral Commission represents David Rockefeller's vision for coordinating policy among democratic powers—North America, Europe, Japan—creating influential network that shaped globalization while attracting conspiracy theories about elite world government. 🌍🔺
David Rockefeller, chairman of Chase Manhattan Bank and heir to oil fortune, founded the Commission in 1973 with Zbigniew Brzezinski, Columbia University professor who later became National Security Advisor. Their goal involved strengthening cooperation between United States, Western Europe, Japan as these regions dominated global economy and democratic governance.
The organization emerged from Rockefeller's participation in Bilderberg Group meetings, which he felt needed expansion beyond North Atlantic focus. Japan's economic rise required inclusion in Western elite coordination. Brzezinski provided intellectual framework, arguing these three regions formed core of democratic capitalist world requiring coordinated strategy.
Membership approximately 350 individuals carefully selected from politics, business, media, academia across the three regions. Each regional group selects members independently, maintaining balance between sectors and political perspectives. North American section includes roughly 120 members, European 170, Pacific Asian 60. This structure ensures representation while maintaining exclusivity.
Prominent members include Jimmy Carter, who joined before presidency. His 1976 election raised immediate concerns when he appointed numerous Commission members to administration. Brzezinski became National Security Advisor, Cyrus Vance Secretary of State, Harold Brown Defense Secretary, Michael Blumenthal Treasury Secretary. This concentration alarmed critics who saw unelected organization capturing government.
Subsequent presidents continued the pattern. George H.W. Bush belonged before and during presidency. Bill Clinton joined prior to his political rise. Dick Cheney served as member while CEO of Halliburton before becoming Vice President. Alan Greenspan chaired Federal Reserve while maintaining Commission membership, making monetary policy affecting global economy.
The Commission publishes Triangle Papers—detailed policy recommendations on international economics, energy, security. These reports, researched by member experts, often presage actual government policies implemented months or years later. Critics view this as undemocratic—unelected group determining policy through insider influence rather than voters deciding through elections.
Annual plenary meetings rotate between regions, lasting several days with extensive discussions on global challenges. Sessions operate under confidentiality rules similar to Chatham House—content may be shared without attribution. This allows participants speaking freely without media sensationalism or diplomatic complications. However, it also prevents public understanding of what powerful individuals discuss while simultaneously holding government, corporate, media positions.
Conspiracy theories position Trilateral Commission as coordinating body for New World Order. Theorists note how recommended policies—trade liberalization, economic integration, supranational institutions—gradually implemented despite public opposition. They interpret this as proof of elite conspiracy overriding democratic will. NAFTA, WTO creation, EU expansion aligned with Commission recommendations, suggesting either conspiracy or simple policy influence through expertise.
Critics from political left and right oppose the Commission. Leftists view it as corporate capitalism's coordinating committee, advancing profit over people. Right-wing nationalists see it as globalist threat to sovereignty, American interests. Both criticize democratic deficit—powerful unelected organization shaping policy affecting billions.
Defenders argue Commission provides essential venue for dialogue preventing misunderstandings between major powers. They note members hold diverse views, disagreeing substantially on many issues despite sharing broadly internationalist outlook. The coordination involves information sharing, relationship building rather than dictating specific policies. Recommendations reflect consensus among qualified experts rather than conspiracy directives.
Academic characterization presents Commission as transnational policy-planning network for capitalist class. It functions similarly to domestic policy groups but operates across national boundaries. The influence derives from members' positions returning to governments, corporations, media after meetings armed with coordinated frameworks and relationships.
