Annual Meeting
In: PS: political science & politics, Band 44, Heft 4, S. 899-917
For the first time in its history, the American Political Science Association held its annual meeting in Seattle, Washington, bringing together more than 6,000 political scientists from all over the world for a variety of programmatic, networking, and social events. From September 1 to September 4, scholars gathered in the beautiful Pacific Northwest to explore an exciting program focused on the theme The Politics of Rights. The 2011 Annual Meeting Program Chairs Frances Hagopian, Harvard University, and Bonnie Honig, Northwestern University, developed a theme that asked "the discipline bring its empirical and normative lenses to reflect on the domestic, comparative, and international dimensions of the complex politics of rights."
