Organized Section Handbook

The Organized Section Handbook was designed to assist leadership in the administration of their Section by highlighting policies and procedures necessary to ensure that they are in accordance with the mission and goals of the American Political Science Association as well as providing insight into managing Section activites.

We invite comments and suggestions on Section administration, to be included in the future editions of APSA Handbook for Organized Sections. To share your management experiences with other Sections, please contact the Organized Section Liaison via email at sections@apsanet.org.
