The Italian International Affairs Institute (IAI) is an Italian think tank and "non-state actor within the Italian foreign policy community, including the defence policy community".[1]
Contents
History
IAI was founded in 1965 by Altiero Spinelli, who wanted to create in Italy a new actor aimed at elaborating and promoting reflection on international affairs, bearing in mind the example of Chatham House established in London in 1920. It is part of several networks of similar think tanks in Western Europe and North America.[2] The institute has penetrated the Italian government both with supplying personnel and "experts", and culturally, by dominating the supply of policy papers.
The first article of the Institute's statute affirms explicitly that its goal is to promote the understanding of international affairs, as well as to "contribute to the advancement of European integration and multilateral cooperation".[3]
Funding
The first funds received by IAI was from the US Ford Foundation and by Italian private companies or foundations in favour of European integration such as FIAT and Fondazione Olivetti.[4] later donors include the Compagnia di San Paolo, as well as among US ones like the US German Marshall Fund (GMF).[2]
