    The section serves the profession by organizing traditional research panels and thematic roundtables at APSA's annual meeting, by publishing a newsletter, by representing section members' interests to the APSA, and by honoring distinguished scholarship with annual awards for the best paper and best dissertation. Over 500 faculty, graduate students, and other scholars are members of the section which is governed by officers and and executive council

    This web site supplements these activities by maintaining an archive of back issues of the newsletter, posting announcements and calls for papers, and providing an extensive set of links to related groups. You can also read the minutes of our 1999 annual meeting. An email directory of our members is now available for searching.
