Page | 1 WELCOME LETTER From the President Empowering Citizens in Illiberal Times: The Political Psychology of Oppression and Resistance Welcome to the 42nd Annual Scientific Meeting of the International Society of Political Psychology and to the wonderful city of Lisbon, Portugal! The city and surrounding countryside have many charms, which I hope will catch your eye and make for an enjoyable visit. But first, plan on attending as many of the conference sessions as possible, as you join what is shaping up to be ISPP’s largest meeting to date. This record-setting conference signals not just the attraction of Lisbon, but the excitement and growth in our field, which has much to offer in these days of worldwide change and uncertainty. Our theme this year is Empowering Citizens in Illiberal Times: The Political Psychology of Oppression and Resistance, reflecting the events of the second decade of the 21st century which have led to challenges to liberal democratic order on a scale which few of us anticipated. The defining international structure of the post-WWII 20th century seems to be being swept away before our eyes as what seemed like an inexorable march toward liberal democracy (at least in the “west”) has stalled. Political psychology has a lot to offer in these times and the academic program developed by Angie Bos and Shelley McKeown Jones reflects the diversity of the work we do and the questions we ask. Angie and Shelley were ably assisted by their section chairs, who worked through well over 1,000 individual and panel submissions as they built this conference. My thanks to Angie and Shelley, along with Zoe Oxley , Christina Farhart , Dan Stevens , Martijn van Zomeren , Amanda Bittner , Gizem Arikan , Zac Greene , Mark Dechesne , Becky Choma , Huseyin Cakal , Michael Bang- Peterson , Tereza Capelos , and Reeshma Haji for the many hours they spent serving ISPP and all of us. I also offer my deepest appreciation to the many ISPP members who served on various committees throughout the year, including the Chairs of our various Awards Committees: Kevin Durrheim, Cindy Kam, Diana Mutz, Scott Clifford, and Julie Wronski. ISPP cannot function without extensive volunteer service on these committees and on the Governing Council. The often unsung heroes of ISPP are our Central Office Staff, who make certain that things run smoothly year-round, and when inevitable challenges arise, resolve them quickly and effectively. I have been fortunate to work with Sev Bennett, Executive Director, and Heather Schlabach, Executive Administrator, during my year as president. They have made my job so much easier. Say hi to them at the registration tables! In addition to the hundreds of panel sessions, roundtables, posters, and blitz’s from which you can choose, four Plenary Sessions are scheduled this Page | 2 WELCOME LETTER From the President year. As our 2018 Sanford Award winner, Kevin Durrheim’s talk is The Beginning and the End of Racism - and Something in Between, while Steve Reicher, 2018 Laswell Awardee, will examine Social Identity as Political Psychology. In addition, as part of our Gender and Political Psychology Conference within the Conference, Sara Mitchell will present her research on Navigating Gender Biases in Academia. Finally, I will speak on Academic Freedom under attack in my presidential address. An important innovation by our Program Chairs is the Gender and Political Psychology Conference within the Conference (CwC) that will run as part of this year’s programs. Look for the special designation in the schedule, which includes dozens of panels, posters, and presentations. The CwC gives those interested a chance to focus intensely on this area of research over the four days of the meeting. There are a number of other special program events and activities. Don’t miss the poster sessions, although it may be hard to do so since they will be in the lobby areas as you walk through. Stop and talk with poster presenters; I guarantee you will learn a lot. The Early Career Committee has organized a number of panels and events, including the annual Mentoring Lunch. The ECC is one of the jewels of ISPP, working to create networking and professional development opportunities for students and early career faculty and researchers. All ISPP members are invited to the annual Business Meeting, to be held on Sunday, 14 July, during the lunch break in Coimbra B (please note that lunch is not provided). We will provide information on the financial state of ISPP and plans for future conferences that should be of interest. And please plan to join us for our various receptions and events, especially at the Award Ceremony and reception as we celebrate our 2019 award winners. For several years now we have been watching events in Turkey (and elsewhere) with dismay. ISPP colleagues, and many others across all academic disciplines in Turkey, have been harassed, dismissed, and charged and convicted of major crimes for speaking out from their positions as scholars and citizens, in direct violation of the rights to free speech and Academic Freedom. Some of our members have been made virtual non- persons as the government has stripped them of their jobs, their access to social services, and their right to travel. The stories are heartbreaking, but in many cases are also inspiring as our colleagues find solidarity in their struggle. ISPP has been helping where we can. We have been formally expressing our condemnation of the government’s actions (in Turkey and other countries where Academic Freedom has been particularly under attack). We have also been reaching out in support of our colleagues, including financially where we can. Thank you to all who have contributed: Page | 3 WELCOME LETTER From the President funds are still needed and gratefully accepted at https://ispp.eventsair.com/ispp-members/donmod/Site/Register. I am so humbled by the work of so many to help, and especially grateful to ISPP Past-president Eva Green for her leadership of our Scholars Under Threat Committee. As my year as ISPP President comes to a close, I want to thank the Governing Council and all ISPP members for this opportunity to serve. ISPP has been important to me since my graduate student days, and I feel privileged to have been able to lead this incredible Society. As I step back, President-elect Nick Valentino will take the reins following the conference. I wish him and all of our officers and members all the best in the coming year. Again, welcome to Lisbon and ISPP. I trust you will have an enjoyable and illuminating conference! Dave Redlawsk ISPP President Page | 4 WELCOME LETTER From Lisbon Program Chairs WELCOME TO THE 42ND ANNUAL MEETING OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF POLITICAL PSYCHOLOGY! Bem vindo a Lisboa! Welcome to Lisbon! We are excited to welcome you to the largest annual meeting in the history of ISPP- the 42nd International Conference in Lisbon, Portugal. The huge response we have had to this meeting illustrates ISPP’s growing popularity and place as a multidisciplinary and international forum for sharing research in political psychology. Showcasing the very best of political psychology research, our program is truly diverse in research focus and methods, bringing together speakers from a wide range of countries, disciplines, and career stages—this is something we worked hard to achieve and are very proud of. Centered around the theme of “Empowering Citizens in Illiberal Times: The Political Psychology of Oppression and Resistance,” our program recognizes society’s challenging times but also encourages us to think about how political psychology can contribute to understanding empowerment and movements that counter various trends posing a threat to liberal democracy and academic freedom. Being such a large event, we have a busy 4 days ahead of us! There are over 800 registered delegates participating in 121 panels, 19 blitz sessions, 5 roundtable discussions, over 5 plenary or workshop sessions, and 94 poster presentations. Professor David Redlask will give the ISPP Presidential Address on Friday at 5:40pm, and Professor Sara Mitchell will give a plenary address on Saturday at 5:40pm. ISPP award winners Professor Kevin Durrheim (Sanford Award) and Professor Stephen Reicher (Lasswell award) will give plenary addresses on Sunday at 4pm and Monday at 11:50am respectively.
