2024 Spitz Prize Call for Nominations
Did you read an outstanding book of political theory published in 2022? Did you write one? Nominate it for the Spitz Prize!
​
The David and Elaine Spitz Prize is awarded every year for the best book in democratic and/or liberal theory published two years earlier. The 2024 Prize will be given to a book published in 2022 (copyright date). Books that are jointly authored are eligible, but textbooks and edited collections are not. (A list of past winners is available on the CSPT website.)
Publishers and individuals are invited to nominate books by sending physical copies marked “Regarding Spitz Prize” directly to all three members of the Prize Committee listed below. Please also send an email to the Committee Chair, Murad Idris (midris@umich.edu) and to ICSPT Coordinator (coordinator@icspt.org), alerting the Committee that a nominated book is on its way.
The (postmark) deadline for the submission of candidate books is December 9, 2024.
