NEPSA 2027: APRIL 15-17
HYANNIS, MASSACHUSETTS
NEPSA 2027 ANNUAL MEETING - CALL FOR PAPERS AND PARTICIPANTS
The New England Political Science Association invites proposals for papers, panels, and roundtables to be presented at its 2027 Annual Meeting, which will convene April 15-17 at the Margaritaville Cape Cod Resort in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Please note that in addition to customary Friday and Saturday panels, a full day of panels will also be offered on Thursday. NEPSA’s traditional welcome event will take place on the evening of Thursday, April 15, after the first day of panels.
In NEPSA’s 79th year, we are pleased to finally return to Massachusetts for the first time in twenty years. We welcome a broad array of panel and paper proposals reflecting the various subfields of our discipline.
NEPSA has the following dedicated sections:
Public Law
Public Policy
Race, Gender, and Intersectionality
Technology and Politics
American Politics
Comparative and Canadian Politics
International Relations
Political Theory
Politics and History
Proposals from undergraduates will once again be considered for presentation. Undergraduate proposals will be evaluated on a competitive basis by a special Undergraduate Proposals Committee. Accepted proposals will present on panels dedicated to undergraduate research; presenters must be accompanied at the conference by a sponsoring faculty member.
Proposals for individual papers, full panels, and roundtables – as well as offers to serve as panel chairs and/or discussants – may also be submitted through the appropriate entries in the “2027 CONFERENCE” drop-down menu above. Except in special situations, individuals are restricted to two paper proposals.
The deadline for submissions to the 2027 Annual Meeting is FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2026.
