EPOP is convening a total of nine panels at this year’s PSA conference in Swansea. One of these papers is from Iain McLean and his colleagues, offering the results of a survey of academic politics journals. It ranks 92 journals, based on surveys of academic colleagues, and gives results for those in the UK, Canada, and the US. They report very little difference between the different countries - although Brits rank the BJPS top, compared to North Americans who give the APSR top spot.

The inaugural JEPOP prize for the best article published in EPOP’s journal in the preceding year goes to Christopher Carman of the University of Strathclyde for his article ‘Assessing Preferences for Political Representation in the US’ (2007, vol 17, issue 1, pp. 1-20). The David Butler Prize for the best graduate paper presented at the 2007 EPOP Conference has been awarded to Ben Clements of Essex University, for his paper ‘The salience of the European issue and vote choice in Britain, 1983-2005’. Many congratulations to both; the awards will be made the EPOP’s 2008 conference.
