Claremont Institute for the Study of Statesmanship

Claremont, CA 91711

Often accused of a being a bastion of Straussian scholarship and a neoconservative stronghold, the Claremont Institute, based in Claremont, California, is home to a number of rightist academics and advocacy programs. Founded in 1979 "to restore the principles of the American Founding to their rightful, preeminent authority in our national life," the Claremont Institute is part of a tightly knit group of conservative academic institutions that often serve as home bases for foreign and domestic policy scholars and policymakers with close ties to Republican administrations [IRC Right Web].
