Center for Responsive Politics

Center for Responsive Politics

Le Center for Responsive Politics (CRP), pouvant se traduire par « centre pour une politique réactive, est un organisme à but non-lucratif non-partisan basé à Washington (District of Columbia) et retraçant l'utilisation de l'argent en politique. L'organisme étudie les effet de l'argent et du lobbyisme sur les élections ainsi que sur les politiques publiques.

Le centre publie une base de données en ligne sur le site http://www.opensecrets.org[1]. Les internautes peuvent y retrouver, notamment, des informations concernant le financement des partis politiques et campagnes électorales ainsi que les activités de lobbyistes en fonction de plusieurs critères (par industrie, groupe d'intérêts, pour chacun des membres du Congrès des États-Unis, etc.).

Sommaire

Histoire

Fondé en 1983 par le démocrate Frank Church (en) et le républicain Hugh Scott (en), le centre vise à développer la citoyenneté en créant un électeur éduqué et un gouvernement responsable. Les données sont d'abord publiées sous forme de rapports et de livres. Le premier livre, publié en 1990, analyse en 1 300 pages les actions politiques lors des élections de 1988.
