Movement conservatism

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."Paul Krugman, The Great Revulsion, New York Times, 10 November 2006.

In Britain, Tim Montgomerie, has described the conservative movement as "the infrastructure outside of the party that supports small 'c' conservative values."Tim Montgomerie, The growth of Britain's conservative movement, ConservativeHome, 14 March 2009.
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 CohesionTim Montgomerie, The growth of Britain's conservative movement, ConservativeHome, 14 March 2009.
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. A fuller list from 2011 might include:
:2020 Health | Atlantic Bridge | Adam Smith Institute | Better Off Out | Big Brother Watch | Bow Group | Bruges Group | Campaign for an English Parliament | Campaign for the Protection for Rural England | Centre for Policy Studies | Centre for Social Cohesion | Centre for Social Justice | Christian Conservative Fellowship | Civitas | Conservative Education Society | ConservativeHome | Conservative Intelligence | Conservative Party | Conservative Philosophy Group | Countryside Alliance | Democracy Institute | Direct Democracy | Drivers Alliance | Doctors for Reform | Economic Policy Centre | Enterprise Forum | European Foundation | European Policy Forum | Family Education Trust | First Defence | Forest | Freedom Alliance | Freedom Association | Freedom Zone | The Free Society | Global Vision | Global Warming Policy Foundation | Henry Jackson Society | Institute of Ideas | Institute of Directors | Institute of Economic Affairs | International Policy Network | Legatum Institute | Liberty League | Localis | Message Space | Migration Watch | New Culture Forum | Nothing British about the BNP | Nurses for Reform | Open Europe | Policy Exchange | Politeia | Progressive Vision | Reform | Reform Scotland | ResPublica | Safe Speed | Save Our Pubs and Clubs | Selsdon Group | Social Affairs Unit | Social Market Foundation | Spiked | Standpoint | Student Rights | Sunlight COPS | Taxpayers Alliance | TEA Party UK | UK National Defence Association | UKIP | Young Britons Foundation
===Funding the movement - Foundations===
There is a network of interconnected foundations - many of them UK charities - that fund the Conservative movement. They are interconnected in that the people behind the foundations are often connected to the think tanks which receive donations; in that some foundations and trusts give money to their charities who then funnel it to the think tanks. The following foundations and trusts are part of the network:
The Cayo Foundation | The Charles Wolfson Charitable Trust | The David Young Charitable Trust | The Duke of Marlborough Charitable Settlement | The Federated Foundation | The G.R.P. Charitable Trust | Garfield Weston Foundation | Institute for Policy Research | The Morgan Charitable Foundation | Nigel Vinson Charitable Trust | The Weinberg Foundation | The W T J Griffin Charitable Settlement | The Wyford Foundation
