Did you read an outstanding book of political theory published in 2020? 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 2022 Prize will be given to a book published in 2020 (copyright date). Books that are jointly authored are eligible, but textbooks and edited collections are not. 

Publishers and individuals are invited to nominate books by sending copies marked “Regarding Spitz Prize” directly to all three of the Prize Committee members listed below (please send physical copies only). The (postmark) deadline for the submission of candidate books is January 31, 2023.
