PSA Annual Conference
Our 74th Annual Conference, “After (Neo-) Liberalism: Towards an Alternative Paradigm?” convened by the University of Strathclyde, will take place from 25 – 27 March 2024.
PRICING NOW ANNOUNCED!
Now that the submission date has ended the Strathclyde convenors are reviewing the abstracts and beginning to formulate the programme. When this process is completed, prospective paper givers will be notified by an Ex Ordo email as to whether their abstract has been accepted, so please look out for this.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
We thank our lead partners, SAGE Publishing for their sponsorship of this event, which will explore whether current or alternative approaches can address the equity, economic and ecological challenges facing liberal democracy.
The convening team will be led by Dr Mark Shephard, Senior Lecturer in Politics at the university. Head of School of Government & Public Policy, Professor Anthony McGann said: “We look forward to welcoming you to the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow to participate in a dynamic and thought-provoking conference that will critically examine the limitations and possibilities of (neo-) liberalism, and to consider whether there are new pathways and strategies for addressing the pressing issues of our time.”
The Chair of the PSA, Dr Rose Gann, added: “On behalf of the PSA, I warmly thank Anthony, Mark and the team at Strathclyde for convening this flagship conference. These important questions concern every branch of Politics and International Relations and, as the home of Adam Smith, Glasgow is a fitting venue for our community to come together to consider the viability and vitality of liberal democracy.”
