The Caucus for a New Political Science organizes the New Political Science Section of the American Political Science Association
As a section of the APSA, New Political Science organizes a group of panels at each annnual meeting, often in cooperation with other organized sections of the APSA. Members of the Section and other interested persons are urged to attend these sessions at each year's meetings as the number of panels that we are allowed to sponsor by the APSA is dependent on attendance.
Members of the APSA may join the Section and thus the Caucus when they pay their annual association dues. Paid-up members of the section receive New Political Science as part of their membership. Section dues are $20.
New Political Science:The Journal
New Political Science is the official journal of the Caucus for a New Political Science (CNPS), an Organized Section of the American Political Science Association, and serves as an organ for its goals and interests.
The CNPS was formed in order to help make the study of politics relevant to the struggle for a better world. As an educational organization, it offers a forum for diverse positions within the framework of this struggle. At the same time, it recognizes that political study and criticism, if it is to be effective, must ultimately transcend the barriers of professionalism and become a function of the community as a whole. Accordingly, New Political Science seeks access to general as well as specialized audiences.
The focus of New Political Science as official journal of the CNPS, is to develop analyses which reflect a commitment to progressive social change and which treat topics that are within exploratory phases of development in political science. It insists on the broadest possible definition of 'politics', and holds that political and cultural development cannot be understood in isolation from each other.
