About
The Claremont Institute
To return to limited government, conservatives must return to the principles of the American Founding. The Claremont Institute provides the missing argument in the battle to win public sentiment by teaching and promoting the philosophical reasoning that is the foundation of limited government and the statesmanship required to bring that reasoning into practice.
About Our Fellowships
We educate the best and most promising young writers, lawyers, activists, academics, entrepreneurs, and public servants through our annual Publius, Lincoln, John Marshall, Speechwriters, and Sheriffs Fellowship programs, engaging this next generation of conservative leaders in a lifelong study of the true principles of government and their application to today’s policies.
