Capital Research Center (CRC) is an American conservative non-profit organization located in Washington, DC. It was founded in 1984 by Willa Johnson "to study non-profit organizations, with a special focus on reviving the American traditions of charity, philanthropy, and voluntarism." The group opposes the growth of government-welfare programs and promotes private sector alternatives.〔(CRC's "About" Page )〕 It discourages donations by corporations to non-profits supporting what it sees as anti-business or liberal policies. Often described as "conservative", the Capital Research Center is sometimes described as "right wing" or as being part of the "New Right".〔 "conservative" : : : : : "right-wing" : : : : : : "New Right" :〕 ==Policy stances== Capital Research Center is highly critical of animal rights activists and the environmental movement. In 2006 it published ''The Green Wave: Environmentalism and Its Consequences'', a book by Dr. Bonner Cohen. In 2007 it published the third edition of ''The Great Philanthropists and the Problem of “Donor Intent”'' by Martin Morse Wooster, senior fellow at the Center. In 2008 it published ''Guide to Nonprofit Advocacy,'' by James Dellinger. The CRC says Al Gore's campaign to control carbon emissions is motivated by the likelihood that he will make an "immense fortune" if laws are passed to control them; argues that organized labor is bad for America; and has criticized government efforts to weaken intellectual property protection of prescription medications. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capital Research Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
