About Cato


The Cato Institute is a public policy research organization – a think tank – dedicated to the principles of individual liberty, limited government, free markets, and peace. Its scholars and analysts conduct independent, nonpartisan research on a wide range of policy issues.


Founded in 1977, Cato owes its name to Cato’s Letters, a series of essays published in 18th-century England that presented a vision of a society free from excessive government power. Those essays inspired the architects of the American Revolution. And the simple, timeless principles of that revolution – individual liberty, limited government, and free markets – turn out to be even more powerful in today’s world of global markets and unprecedented access to information than Jefferson or Madison could have imagined. Social and economic freedom is not just the best policy for a free people, it is the indispensable framework for the future.


Cato Institute is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Political Science, Economics, History, or a similar field.
  • 1 to 3 years of work or internship experience with state or local government, an association representing state legislators, or other state-level policy group; or equivalent experience at a national-level non-profit entity such as an association, think tank, or government agency.
  • Working knowledge of libertarian philosophy and free market principles is required.
