American Politics Workshop
The American Politics Workshop provides a forum for graduate students and faculty in American politics to discuss the main themes of research in the field today. The meetings are broken down by substantive topic areas and include: discussion of published work, working papers, faculty and student presentations, and guest speakers. The aim of this workshop is for participants to gain a better understanding of the key questions in a variety of substantive areas of American politics and to see where students can contribute with their own work.

Comparative Politics Workshop
The Comparative Politics Workshop provides an opportunity for graduate students and faculty engaged in comparative and historical research to present work "in progress" to an audience that is neither specialized in area or era. Thus, the purpose of the workshop is to draw out themes from papers that are based on specialized historical and comparative research that transcend the period and region covered. Papers will be posted generally by Thursday before the seminar. It will be assumed that all participants have read the paper before the workshop, and little time will therefore be expended in summarizing the paper. All members of the university community are welcome to participate in this workshop. To join the Comparative Politics Workshop mailing list, please click here. Faculty Convenor: Kenneth Scheve

Political Theory Workshop
The Political Theory Workshop offers faculty and other scholars an opportunity to present "in progress" or recently completed work to a diverse audience from political science, philosophy, law, and other social sciences and humanities.

Papers are circulated ten days before the seminar. Participants are expected to read the paper before the workshop. Each session begins with comments and questions on the paper by a discussant, a brief response from the author, followed by a general discussion.
