European Political Science Association

The European Political Science Association was founded in 2010, to pursue the following objectives: * To represent and promote political science in Europe. * To foster development in postgraduate training of political scientists in Europe. * To promote undergraduate teaching of political scientists in Europe. * To facilitate networking by political scientists worldwide. * To host an annual general conference of political scientists, with the first to be held in June 2011 in Dublin (at the Guinness Storehouse Conference Centre). * To publish a general journal of political science that will have a profile, impact, and structure on a par with top general political science journals in the United States.  The first edition of the EPSA journal, Political Science Research and Methods , will appear in the Summer 2013. The EPSA held an inaugural workshop held in June 2010 to clarify goals and define the purpose of the new organization.
