The conference was chaired by Franklin D. Kramer of the Atlantic Council. Robert A. Kapp of Robert A. Kapp & Associates, Inc. served as rapporteur. The workshop was structured around “an examination of interpretive dichotomies,” which provided the titles of the successive sessions. Banning Garrett of the Atlantic Council organized the program, and Cora Foley of the State Department offered welcoming remarks.
