John has already mentioned the “political science meets journalism”:https://themonkeycage.org/2010/08/apsa_panel_what_can_political.html and “Perspectives on Politics”:https://themonkeycage.org/2010/08/perspectives_panel_at_apsa.html panels at APSA. In the twin spirits of promoting excellence and promoting self, I also want to mention a panel on campaign finance where John is presenting a joint paper of ours on the ‘Kos’ effect (it’s 8am on Thursday – but you get to see other awesome people too), and a “Future of IPE” panel (which I’m informally dubbing ‘can we have an IPE that doesn’t suck, thank you very much) panel that same afternoon. Details below. Others should feel free to mention the details of awesome-sounding panels that they are participating in, attending, or _would_ be attending if they weren’t downing beer at the bar, in comments to this post.
