Proposals Welcome on the Politics of Climate Change 2020

The 2019 Annual Meeting of the Western Political Science Association was one of the largest and most dynamic in its history. Generating much of the interest was the conference’s timely theme on “The Politics of Climate Change." In total, there were some 26 panels throughout the conference focusing directly on climate change, along with numerous individual papers and special events. 

If you conduct research related to the politics of climate change, the WPSA would like to invite you back again to next year’s conference in Los Angeles. While the main theme of the conference has changed, it is important to the WPSA that it continues to provide a forum for discussion on this topic. Given the dire threats associated with climate change, this is an issue that demands the attention of political scientists. Please consider joining us to continue the scholarly conversation.

I am sending you this note now because the deadline for proposals will be coming up shortly (September 20). As with last year, proposals for complete panels as well as individual papers are welcome. Proposals in all subfields are welcome. Details about the conference, its theme, the Call for Papers, and proposal instructions are available on the WPSA website:  www.wpsanet.org.  

The conference will be held at the J.W. Marriott at L.A. Live in Los Angeles, California, from April 9 to 11, 2020.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me.
