2009 American Political Science Assocation Annual Meeting and Exhibition

July 4, 2009

For the first time in its 104 years, the Annual Meeting will take place outside the United States. The 2009 APSA Annual Meeting will convene in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, September 3-6, 2009. In its own small way, this traveling across a border is symbolic of the multiplicity of ways in which politics is, and our discipline needs to be, in motion.

Program Chairs, Bruce Jentleson, Duke University, and Simone Chambers, University of Toronto, ask political scientists to think about the pursuit of knowledge in a context of change and complexity as both a scholarly endeavor and for bringing that knowledge to bear on the crucial challenges that shape our contemporary era.

David Rayside of the University of Toronto has generously prepared A Personal and Idiosyncratic Introduction to Toronto for APSA attendees.
