What is the Aspen Institute?

Our core mission is to foster enlightened leadership and open-minded dialogue. Through seminars, policy programs, conferences and leadership development initiatives, the Institute and its international partners seek to promote nonpartisan inquiry and an appreciation for timeless values.

We help people become more enlightened in their work and enriched in their lives. Together we can learn one of the keys to being successful in business, leadership and life: balancing conflicting values in order to find common ground with our fellow citizens while remaining true to basic ideals.

Walter Isaacson
President & CEO

Sounds to me like they could easily become affliated with WISE. Why do we all need so much help to become enlightened again? Oh right, it's our Hegelian evolutionary destiny to follow the Lightbearer. How many "more enlightened" teachers live in cities, towns, and near Heritage Sites across the US? Are they all over Europe now too? How BIG is this organization of more enlightened beings? Are they all trained, like WISE founders were, to write themselves into Community Visions for the Future, as our designated more enlightened spiritual gurus?

Berit Kjos has quite a bit to say about Aspen. Berit is a Christian online minister who does some really good research on communitaranism. She reprints ACL work with a disclaimer saying she does not agree with everything on our sites. I think she had to do that because we are not Christians and we openly tie Zionism, the Talmud, and the Kaballah to the overall global government agenda. I don't know how she can ignore it, but a lot of Christians manage it quite well. (Henry Makow, The Politics of Christian Persecution).
... it's not surprising that the Aspen Institute is funded by foundations such as the Carnegie Corporation, The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and the Ford Foundation. Nor is it surprising that the Wye Plantatin was donated by the Corning Group, while its supporters include the Deutsche Bank AG, NATO, Siemens, [World Bank President] James D. Wolfensohn, Inc., and many other powerful transnational corporations and organizations that seek the demise of the nation state.

Just as revealing is its Board of Trustees. Among the Honorary Trustees are humanist educator Mortimer J. Adler, Henry A. Kissinger and Former World Bank President Robert S. McNamara. Its Trustees Emeriti include the powerful UN Under-Secretary Maurice Strong, chief of the UN Conference on Environment and Development. The founder of the World Economic Council and Planetary Citizens, Strong has served as director of the World Future Society, trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation, and a member of The Club of Rome. As head of the Earth Council, he initiated the drafting of the The Earth Charter, a global code of conduct based on global values and radical environmental guidelines. One of his offices is a few blocks away from the White House. http://www.crossroad.to/text/articles/Aspen.htm
So what would I reply if Washington Democrat Nancy Rising asked me today what she asked me back in June 2000? She wanted to know who was at the "top." She wanted me to go beyond the UN and all its branches. She urged me to keep going and find where the new system originated. She called my work "uncovering a new Third Reich." Today, in all honesty, I'd have to answer, "Communitarians claim they follow Lucifer." And yes, that's a verifiable fact.
