Ken Masugi teaches for the Fund for American Studies and is writing a book on multiculturalism and the American political tradition. He is the former director of the Claremont Institute's Center for Local Government.
Dr. Masugi has extensive experience in government and academia. Following his initial appointment at the Claremont Institute (1982-86), he was a special assistant to then-Chairman Clarence Thomas of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (1986-1990). After his years in Washington, he held visiting university appointments at James Madison College of Michigan State University and the Ashbrook Center of Ashland University. He was John M.

He is co-editor of seven other books on American politics and political thought. His current book project is a work on citizenship and multiculturalism, which uses the standards of the American Founding to critique the comtemporary attack on a common citizenship.

Dr. Masugi has also published in the popular press, including the Los Angeles Times, Orange County Register, Washington Post, Washington Times, National Review, and the Weekly Standard.
