The Berkeley Center for Right-Wing Studies (CRWS) is an interdisciplinary academic research center at the University of California, Berkeley, focused on studies of right-wing politics. It is housed at the Institute for the Study of Societal Issues (ISSI). It was founded in 2009, originally as the Center for the Comparative Study of Right-Wing Movements.[1]

The CRWS researches right-wing movements in the 20th and 21st centuries,[1] and is one of the first institutions in the United States dedicated to scholarly research and analysis of right-wing politics and movements.[2]
