Elections 12: Politics in Spires and Rothermere American Institute blog collaboration

The Politics in Spires blog team is pleased to announce Election 12, in collaboration with the Rothermere American Institute.

Elections 2012 is a forum for academic discussion and debate surrounding the US Presidential, Congressional and local elections. The forum brings together scholars from a range of different fields -- including political science, history, law and literature -- to supplement the horse-race coverage provided by political journalism and to showcase academic research.

Posts on Elections 2012 are published simultaneously on the RAI website and the Politics in Spires blog.

Opinions expressed in Elections 2012 are those of the authors and not of Oxford or Cambridge Universities. Contributions from DPIR faculty and students are most welcome; writers from other academic institutions are welcome to enquire about guest posting.
