Centre for Policy Studies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Centre for Policy Studies (CPS) is one of Britain’s best known and most respected think tanks. It exists to promote coherent and practical public policy, to roll back the state, reform public services, support communities, and challenge threats to Britain’s independence.

It was founded by Sir Keith Joseph and Margaret Thatcher in 1974 to champion economic liberalism in Britain and has since played a global role in the dissemination of free market economics. Its policy proposals are based on a set of core principles, including individual choice and responsibility, and the concepts of duty, family, liberty, and the rule of law. It continues to have a vital role as the champion of the small state.
