Finding reliable information for the British American Project (BAP) is difficult, and that is indicative of the secrecy of the organisation. Not only is there a ban on journalists attending their conferences,unless having been invited as a fellow, little has been said by former fellows other than it was a positive experience and a great opportunity to develop social capital.
BAP was founded in 1985 as a means of countering Anti american sentiment within British intellectual spheres. Anti American sentiment could be seen as having a basis in their continued pursuit of nuclear proliferation and Reagans. The aim of the annual conferences was to try and counter any Left leaning sentiment amongst future influential individuals and foster shared values between both sides of the Atlantic.
The most efficiant and scholalrly way of organising research around the BAP is to arrange a problematic which is broader than just the BAP but in keeping with the constraint of elite social networks which include think-tanks, coporations and state actors. Fromm this analysis, there can be a construction built around the key actors and their associations and world views which helps to properly undertsand the political make up and objectives of the BAP.
