Dear Colleague,
Re: APSA Section Membership Pledge for International History and Politics
We are writing to ask for your support in starting a new APSA organized section:
International History and Politics. The purpose of the section, as laid out in
the draft by-laws, is:
"To promote the study of international history and politics; to disseminate
research results; to encourage interdisciplinary conversations between political
scientists and historians; and to advance the development, dissemination,
integration and application of qualitative and historiographical methodologies.
The new section will provide an institutional focus for the recent resurgence in
the qualitative study of international politics, and serve as a permanent point
of access for dialogue between international, diplomatic, economic, social,
cultural and military historians, and political scientists who study
international relations and foreign affairs. The section welcomes all scholars
and scholarship that intersect with its purposes, regardless of their preferred
methodology or epistemology."
The section's proposed slate of transitional officers include:
President: Alexander George, Graham H. Stuart Professor Emeritus of
International Relations, Department of Political Science, Stanford University.
Vice-President: Andrew Bennett, Associate Professor, Department of Government,
Georgetown University.
Program Chair: Jack Levy, Professor of Political Science, Department of
Political Science, Rutgers University.
Secretary-Treasurer: Colin Elman, Assistant Professor, Department of Political
Science, Arizona State University (on leave at Harvard University, 98-00).
The section will also have an advisory council, including:
David A. Baldwin, Wallach Professor of World Order Studies, Department of
Political Science and Institute of War & Peace Studies, Columbia University

Yale University
