Institute of World Politics

The Institute of World Politics is a conservative, nonprofit, accredited graduate school of national security and international affairs, dedicated to developing leaders with a sound understanding of international realities and the ethical conduct of statecraft -- i.e., the use of the various instruments of power in service of national interests and purposes -- based on knowledge and appreciation of the American political economy and the Western moral tradition. Founded in 1990, the Institute began offering summer courses in 1992 and expanded to a year-round program in 1994.
