Spotlight Scholars Program 2024-2025 – please nomimate!

The Interpretive Methods and Methodologies (IMM) APSA related group is currently seeking nominations for the 2024-2025 cohort of Spotlight Scholars. Nominations are accepted until July 15th, 2024, and self-nominations are welcome. To nominate a scholar, click here.

The Spotlight Scholars program aims to highlight outstanding early-career scholars whose work showcases or advances interpretive approaches to the study of politics. It is open to early career scholars, including advanced PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, and those who earned their PhDs less than three years ago. While ideally trained as political scientists or working in political science departments, scholars from adjacent fields are also encouraged to apply.

Starting in the summer of 2024, the program will select three Spotlight Scholars per academic year. Each selected scholar will be paired with a senior interpretivist mentor who shares similar substantive or methodological interests. This initiative provides a platform to showcase excellent research and offers mentorship and networking opportunities within the interpretive methods community.

Spotlight Scholars will participate in an online event organized by IMM in the Spring, where they will receive feedback from community members. Additionally, they are expected to attend IMM’s business meeting at APSA and engage with others’ work through IMM’s online events.
