Academy of Political Science

Website: http://www.psqonline.org/

The Academy of Political Science (APS), founded in 1880, promotes objective, scholarly analyses of political, social, and economic issues. Through its conferences and publications APS provides analysis and insight into both domestic and foreign policy issues.

Due to its well established effort to provide analysis on domestic and foreign affairs, the Academy enjoys a special prestige among the many institutions, committees and think tanks devoted to the exploration and exposition of public policy. More important than mere longevity are the depth and breadth of intellectual competence that the Academy's members bring to their chosen fields. Furthermore, there is the assurance that all publications of the Academy are not shaped by ideological or partisan considerations.

The Academy's mission entails the continuation and broadening of the educational process. Its threefold aim is to:

    * contribute to the scholarly examination of political institutions, programs and public policies;
    * enrich political discourse and channel social science research in understandable ways to political leaders;
    * educate members of the general public and help them to become more informed participants in the democratic process.
