The American Political Science Association (APSA) is pleased to announce that we have renewed our partnership with Cambridge University Press for the publication of the three member-wide APSA journals and six organized section journals: American Political Science Review, Perspectives on Politics, PS: Political Science & Politics, Journal of Experimental Political Science, Journal of Law and Courts, Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics, Politics and Gender, Politics and Religion, and State Politics and Policy Quarterly.
This decision was made following a competitive bid process, engagement with an APSA Working Group and multiple association and discipline stakeholders, and support from outside consultants at Clarke & Esposito.
Dr. Kimberly A. Mealy, Executive Director of APSA, said:
“Cambridge has been a trusted partner of the Association for over 20 years. We enthusiastically look forward to their continued collaboration as our publisher and importantly their guidance and leadership on key issues such as AI, Open Access, research funding and academic freedom, which continue to challenge the scholarly community.”
Mandy Hill, Managing Director of Academic Publishing at Cambridge University Press, said:
“We are delighted to extend our long-running partnership with the American Political Science Association. The APSA journals deliver exceptional quality and diversity, leading the way at a time of great change in both publishing and academia. We look forward to ensuring their ongoing success through close engagement with the APSA leadership, the journal editors, and the global community of members.”
APSA is grateful to all our association leaders, member-volunteers, editors, and staff for their input and diligence over the last year as we have evaluated the best way forward for our nine discipline-leading publications and the association. This new renewed partnership will ensure that the association and the sections have the resources necessary to support our editorial teams and APSA programs, while at the same time enabling the association to adapt to new business models and changes in the publishing industry.
