Movement Conservatism has been described by Paul Krugman as "the potent alliance of wealthy individuals, corporate interests and the religious right that took shape in the 1960s and 1970s."[1]
Britain
In Britain, Tim Montgomerie, has described the conservative movement as "the infrastructure outside of the party that supports small 'c' conservative values."[2]
A March 2009 presentation by Montgomerie and Matthew Elliott listed a number of organisations as part of the British conservative movement:
- Institute of Economic Affairs | Centre for Policy Studies | Reform | Adam Smith Institute | Policy Exchange | Centre for Social Justice | Civitas | International Policy Network | Taxpayers' Alliance | ConservativeHome | New Culture Forum | Standpoint | Migration Watch UK | Countryside Alliance | Centre for Social Cohesion[3]
Elliott's slides (pictured right) compared this with the smaller size of the movement in 1997. According to Montgomerie the comparison was intended to be indicative rather than comprehensive.[3]
