The Mercatus Center is an American libertarian, free market oriented nonprofit think tank located on George Mason University's Arlington, Virginia campus, though it is privately funded and organizationally independent of the university. It traces its founding to 1980, when Richard Fink established it as the Center for the Study of Market Processes at Rutgers University before it moved to George Mason and took its current name in 1999. The center advocates free market approaches to public policy and deregulation at the federal level.
