Section Awards Committees<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Susanne Hoeber Rudolph Outstanding Scholar in Religion and Politics Award<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Susanne Hoeber Rudolph Outstanding Scholar Award\u00a0recognizes a scholar who has made outstanding\u00a0contributions to the field of\u00a0religion and politics. These contributions should be through a combination of\u00a0excellent and widely influential scholarship, policy input\/impact, public\u00a0engagement, service, teaching, and\u00a0mentorship. Although the committee highly\u00a0encourages nominations of APSA members and takes service to\u00a0APSA seriously,\u00a0nominees do not have to be current APSA members. The nominees are expected to\u00a0attend the\u00a0following year\u2019s APSA Annual Meeting and participate in the\u00a0roundtable organized in to celebrate their work.<\/p>\n

The award is presented annually, following a review of\u00a0applications by the committee. The winner will be\u00a0honored with a plaque, a\u00a0monetary award of $500, and a roundtable symposium honoring their work at the\u00a0APSA Annual Meeting of the next calendar year. (The 2020 Susanne Hoeber Rudolph\u00a0Awardee will be honored\u00a0at the 2021 APSA Annual Meeting both during the\u00a0business meeting and the roundtable).<\/p>\n

The award is intended as an addition to, not replacement for, the practice of awarding special lifetime achievement awards\u2019 for scholars who have made substantial contributions to the Section on the event of their retirement. Instead, this is meant to reward political scientists (including those who are mid-career) who have made a substantial contribution to the field of religion and politics.<\/p>\n

Nomination letters and the CVs of the nominees are due to the Committee Chair, Ben Gaskins, (bgaskins@lclark.edu<\/a>) by April 15, 2020<\/span><\/strong>.\u00a0The nomination letter should clearly describe how the nominee\u00a0fulfills the\u00a0criteria described above. Since this award is meant to reflect peer\u00a0recognition, self-nominations will\u00a0not be considered.<\/p>\n
