American Political Science Association Meeting
September 28-October 2 Seattle, WA
David Walsh, Meeting Director
Friends, This is the final form of our program for the Seattle meeting of EVS in conjunction with our host, APSA. Whether you make your way in person or in virtual reality I wish you safe travels. For room allocations you will have to consult the APSA program, where you should also be able to enter the virtual sessions. Thank you for all the preparations you have made to ensure our meeting remains a fruitful and enjoyable experience. I know there have been disappointments and frustrations with the shifting regulatory landscape and look forward to the relaxation of conditions as we think about Montreal next year. We continue to be the largest Related Group at APSA primarily because of the outstanding work you do and the spirit in which it is presented. Without dues, we rely on your generosity and a donate button can be found here, or you may contact our treasurer, David Whitney, [email protected].
