külpol agytröszt
Mivel szleng a "wonk", én meg merném kockáztatni a "külpol agytröszt" kifejezést. A "wonk" szinonímái "nerd" "swot" nem igazán hízelgőek, kicsit több van bennük, mint puszta tudás. A "policy wonk" változata itt az USA-ban a "political think tank" is, amit szerintem magyarul a "külpol(litikai/itikus) agytröszt" ad vissza legjobban. A Halmoford által írtak is jók - attól függ, mennyire komoly--laza a szoveg.

: Az agytröszt sztem több személyből áll. Ha gurut, vagy güzüt mondasz, az inkább tetszene.

How about using "entellektüel" in some form? I would also look at a calque based on German Narr as in "Waffennarr". Now try "wonkery" (seems to have been invented by Tony Blair).
