Highlights
& Quotes
Charles Horner is a senior fellow at the conservative Hudson Institute, where he specializes in China, international science and technology relations, and international treaties, particularly the international sea treaty. (2) He is closely associated with such right web organizations as the Madison Center and Center for Security Policy, where he is a member of the national advisory council. (3)
Not to be confused with Charles A. Horner (the retired Air Force general and former head of the Air Force Space Command who was a member of the Rumsfeld Space Commission) Charles Horner has long been a close associate of the Cold Warriors of the Democratic Party and neoconservatives. In 2003 President Bush selected Horner, along with neocon Daniel Pipes, to join the board of directors of the U.S. Institute of Peace.(1)
Before joining the Hudson Institute, Horner was president of the Madison Center, which in 1990 merged with the Institute for Educational Affairs (IEA) to become the Madison Center for Educational Affairs (MCEA). The IEA was founded by Irving Kristol, William Simon (former Treasury Secretary for presidents Nixon and Ford and then president of the Olin Foundation), while the Madison Center was founded by William Bennett. Media Transparency reports that the MCEA "provides funds for right-wing research and conservative student newspapers." MCEA not only gets its funding from Olin, but also the Scaife, Smith Richardson, and J.M. Foundations. (4)
He served as deputy representative to the United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, deputy assistant secretary of state for science and technology, and associate director of the United States Information Agency in the Reagan administration and the first Bush administration. Previously, Horner served on the staff of Senator Henry M. Jackson and then as senior legislative assistant to Senator Daniel P. Moynihan. Horner has served on the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board, the Secretary of State's Advisory Committee on International Communications and Information Policy, the Secretary of Commerce's Advisory Committee on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Voice of America's Advisory Committee.
