Abstract:

This article reports on a survey of seventeen national political science associations in Europe, which was undertaken as part of discussions leading up to the first Annual General Meeting of a European Confederation of Political Science Associations (ECPSA) held in Spain in summer 2008. The survey provides a detailed overview of the landscape of associations which are widely divergent in size and resourcing but which generally attempt to fulfil similar roles and functions. The responses indicate the forces driving the movement for a new confederation to encourage and enable closer working relationships between national associations.European Political Science (2008) 7, 352-365. doi:10.1057/eps.2008.10
