Technical Alliance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Technical Alliance formed at the end of World War I (winter of 1918-1919) was one of America's first think tanks. Their main task was the Energy Survey of North America. Once this task was completed the Alliance was disbanded in 1933, during the Great Depression. Their findings led to the inception of the Technocratic movement.
