What is the C.H. Douglas Institute?

HummingbirdThe C.H. Douglas Institute is a registered not-for-profit organization that is committed to furthering Social Credit education and facilitating Social Credit advocacy. ‘Social Credit’ being the name which is typically given to that coherent and cogent body of thought on social matters that was first developed in the early decades of the twentieth century by the brilliant Anglo-Scottish engineer, Major Clifford Hugh Douglas. On the one hand, the institute seeks to introduce the wider public to Douglas’ economic, political, and cultural ideas, while deepening the understanding of those who have already had some exposure to Social Credit. On the other hand, we wish to bolster the efforts of all those who have grasped the tremendous value and relevance of the Social Credit analysis and remedial proposals and who therefore wish to work for the establishment of a Social Credit commonwealth. This institute proposes to provide the necessary assistance by serving as a co-ordinating and resource centre for the wider Social Credit movement. Although based in the province of Ontario, Canada, we are keenly interested in assisting all suitably motivated individuals and groups, wherever they may be, in their endeavour to bring their respective societies into greater alignment with Social Credit principles.

  • Douglas Social Credit Through the Lens of Market Failure
    Recently, perhaps as a result of some interactions on social media, it has occurred to me that the best angle for approaching the Douglas Social Credit analysis and proposals for the benefit of those on the conventional right of the economic and political spectra is to frame Douglas’ stance in terms of the concept of market failure. To the question: “What is Douglas Social Credit all about?”, we can respond as follows: Douglas Social Credit is an economic model that is based on a diagnosis and a set of prescriptions. The diagnosis is that the number one cause of economic failure is a specific category of market failure, and the number one cause of the market failure in question is the existing financial system.[1] The remedy is to reform the financial system, to correct its faulty design in such way that not only will it no longer interfere with the…

  • Social Credit and War
    Social Crediters have repeatedly warned that there is a chronic economic cause, entirely artificial in nature and, therefore, unnecessary, which inexorably leads nations to take up arms against each other.

  • To Regulate or not to Regulate Retail Profit-Margins on Turnover? That is the Question!
    Recent events and discussions with both Douglas Social Crediters and others have brought the profit-regulation condition that was sometimes presented by Douglas as being part and parcel of the compensated price mechanism discount into focus. While some, following Douglas’ indications, have defended the profit-regulation mechanism as a necessary and/or important feature of the compensated price discount, others, including some seasoned Social Crediters, have objected to it as unnecessary and/or problematic for a variety of reasons. Rather than attempting to solve the problem or to resolve the dispute (which perhaps can only be properly decided definitively one way or the other by an empirical trial), I will aim to put the issue in context and to outline some of the main considerations both in favour and against the profit-regulation condition.
