Convergence Law Institute Information

CLI Mission The Convergence Law Institute (CLI) is a non-profit organization dedicated to research and education on public policy issues. CLI’s guiding principle is that the institutions of markets and property rights are essential to technological and economic development, and to the freedom and creativity of the peoples of the world. However, these institutions cannot exist without strong and effective government. And the relationships between markets and governments are currently in crisis and continuously stressed by the pace of change even in good times. CLI’s mission is to analyze the interconnections between governments on the one hand and markets and property rights on the other, to suggest better approaches to the relationship, and to educate policy makers, the press, and the public. The term “third way” has become a cliché. We seek practicable alternatives to absolute faith in either untrammeled markets or unrestrained government regulation.
