For the Study of Statesmanship and Political Philosophy
Helprin on Ground Zero Mosque
If the project is to promote moderate Islam, why have its sponsors so relentlessly, without the slightest compromise, insisted upon such a sensitive and inflammatory setting? That is not moderate. It is aggressively militant, writes Mark Helprin, a senior fellow of the Claremont Institute.Claremont Institute Panels on Politics & Political Thought at APSA

Don't read too much into the sex columns cropping up in campus newspapers, writes Joseph Tartakovsky, a contributing editor of the Claremont Review of Books.Boychuk on Fixing California
Fixing California requires a wholesale overhaul of the state's constitution, with the aim of reversing a century of progressivism that makes locally elected governments mere servants of the administrative state, writes Ben Boychuk, a Fellow of the Claremont Institute's Golden State Center for State and Local Government.Smith on Heidegger

Claremont Institute Board Member Lawrence Kadish writes of Churchill's courageous and indomitable statesmanship in 1940, when many thought Britain was lost, and uses this example to comment on the lessons we should learn if we are to prevail over the real and grave threats that face us today.Cantor on Charles Dickens
Dickens was at his happiest when he was down in the trenches of publishing, writes Paul A. Cantor in the Spring 2010 issue of the Claremont Review of Books.Samuelson on Financial Bubbles
