It is with relief and a sense of accomplishment that this third volume, officially the 2011 version, under our editorship is belatedly presented. Two major changes have taken place in the production of the IPSR that we hope will increase the quality of the Review and its accessibility to a wider audience. First, the Board of the Illinois Political Science Association has agreed to change the IPSR to a biennial journal published every odd year. This is intended to allow us to more effectively peer review and examine more submissions from our colleagues. The IPSR is an entirely voluntary production and the two-year cycle will allow for a fairer and more comprehensive review.
