ISPP 31st Annual Scientific Meeting:

Our 2008 Annual Meeting will be held at
Sciences Po in Paris, France
(27 rue Saint Guillaume)
July 9 to July 12, 2008



“Building Bridges: Political Psychology and Other Disciplines, Political Psychology and the World”

 

Political psychology covers a wide diversity of approaches and theories.
It has close ties to disciplines such as social and cognitive psychology,
political science, neuroscience, philosophy, psychoanalysis, history, sociology, communications, international relations, political economy, and formal theory.
In acquiring greater visibility as a specialty, political psychology is devoting greater attention to the breadth of concerns in the world outside of academia, and thus
faces the question:


How can political psychology better connect and build bridges
both with other disciplines and with the world?



The goal of the 2008 ISPP Annual Scientific Meeting is to create a hospitable forum to facilitate constructive dialogue regarding the challenges facing our world.

Conference chairs Cheryl Koopman (left) and Tereza Capelos (right) invite you to participate in this dialogue.

Hotels
We suggest you reserve your lodging in Paris as soon as possible, since hotels are small and fill quickly. There is no one conference hotel this year, although we have negotiated a room block at the Holiday Inn at St. Germain des Pres for 120E/night. To reserve, call Caroline Stecker directly: Tél : +33 (0) 1.49.54.87.17 and mention ISPP. Click on "Hotels" above for more about this and other options, including apartment rentals and low-budget hostels. We can not endorse or guarantee any hotel, but hope you find this list helpful.
