"The Institute of International Affairs, founded at Paris, 1919" is the origin of Chatham House and the Council on Foreign Relations which wins world wide repute as a think tank or brain trust at the present time. It was proposed by Lionel Curtis, who was the founder of the Round Table, and favored by his friends and acquaintances attached to the British and American Peace delegations who attended the meetings at the Hotel Majestic on May 30, 1919 - all except Eyre Crowe of the Foreign Office. Due to Curtis' and his associates' disappointment with the unreasonable (unjust and vindictive) terms in the Treaty of Versailles, they were determined to create an Institute of International Affairs with the American and British Branches and a joint annual register that intended to cultivate a "right" public opinion based on international interests at large. But, the historiographies of the "Proposed Institute of International Affairs" have not yet been presented completely. This article analyzes revised details of the background and circumstances of the establishment of the Institute of International Affairs, thus concluding that the "Proposed Institute of International Affairs 1919" is the founding father of the following triplet-institutes - Chatham House, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Institute of Pacific Relations.
