Overview
The Defending Democracy Together Institute seeks to develop and publish the best new thinking and journalism on politics, policy, and culture from a center-right perspective. The Institute’s goal is to nurture and promote ideas that are consistent with basic American principles of freedom and self-government and to publicize them among a center-right audience. To accomplish this goal, the Institute publishes the online magazine The Bulwark, which combines original journalism in the form of written commentary, daily newsletters, podcasts, and videos, along with handpicked aggregated content from around the internet. The Bulwark is a unique, nonpartisan voice in the field of political ideas and journalism.
