The Local Politics Specialist Group is a group dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary and critical research into the conduct of local government, politics and participation. If you are interested in joining the group, we would like to hear from you.

This year at the PSA Conference we will be holding our annual meeting on Monday 10th April from 13.30 until 14.15 in Graham Hills 513. At the meeting, we will be agreeing a new organising committee, including the following positions (this list is subject to discussion at the group meeting):

  • Conveners/ Co-conveners
  • Treasurer
  • Web and Social Media officer
  • Early Career officer (engages with PhD students and ECRs)

All positions on the committee are open to any interested individuals and we're especially keen to engage with early career scholars who would like to boost their CV and develop their academic networks in the field.

There will also be a group discussion about the future work programme and activities of the group throughout 2017.

If you are interested in engaging with the group or joining the committee, even if you cannot attend the conference itself, and would like to know more please email ccopus@dmu.ac.uk. We look forward to hearing from you.
