Cartel is a better description. I went to a few a decade or so ago, including board meetings, and found them myopic and sycophantically inclined. 
Stuff like: remember zipi? One year (Japan?) they decided to accept no papers on midi because they wanted to push zipi.

And its focus is _so_ narrow and philosophically biassed towards cognitivism. Thank goodness there are other alternatives these days, so it can easily be ignored.
