think tanks

Think tanks are organizations that conduct research and publish reports and analysis on public policy and other issues. Think tanks are often political and serve specific agendas or ideologies. However, the research they produce may still be of great value in understanding public policy issues, including issues affecting business. Better-known U.S. think tanks include the Brookings Institution and RAND Corporation.

SourceWatch, a project of the Center for Media and Democracy, discusses the nature of think tanks and offers a long list of think tanks in the U.S. and Europe, and other related links.
