The Southern Political Science Association is requesting academic paper and panel proposals for its 97th Annual Meeting taking place in New Orleans, LA, January 14-17, 2026.
The SPSA is excited to invite scholars from across the U.S. and around the world to participate in our Annual Meeting. The meeting will provide a forum for sharing ideas, research results, and professional insights in a collegial setting.
You can submit your proposals using this year’s SPSA All Academic website:

Even if you presented at a previous conference, you will need to create a new username and password for this year’s system.
Proposals are due September 1. Please contact the SPSA at info@spsa.net if you have any questions.
