The Ayn Rand Institute (ARI) is an organization dedicated to promoting the philosophy of Ayn Rand, which emphasizes individualism, reason, and free-market capitalism. Founded in 1985, it aims to educate the public about Rand's ideas through educational programs, publications, and events. ARI advocates for personal responsibility, limited government, and the pursuit of rational self-interest as key to achieving a free society. It serves students, educators, and the general public, providing resources to foster understanding of Rand’s philosophy, Objectivism, and its application to contemporary issues.
