Recognising Exceptional Contributions to Politics in 2017 2017 Recognising Exceptional Contributions to Politics in 2017 5th December 2017 Church House, Dean’s Yard, Westminster, London SW1P 3NZ Launch of the PSA – British Library Lecture Series 2018 The Political Studies Association is pleased to announce the launch in 2018 of a new lecture series in partnership with the British Library. Complementing the British Library’s richly curated and diverse programme of exhibitions and events, the lecture series will help the public engage with and develop a better understanding of politics, especially within wider historical and cultural contexts. The inaugural lecture will be given by Mark Laity, one of NATO’s foremost experts and thinkers on communications and a former BBC Defence Correspondent: Storytelling and Politics: How History, Myths and Narratives Drive Our Decisions Monday 19th February 19.00 - 20.30 Post dinner entertainment provided by Ceilidh Minogue The British Library MARK LAITY Director of Communications at SHAPE, NATO’s Military Headquarters Shared myths, accepted legends and historical assumptions: how can we make rational decisions when we are so dominated by the stories handed down to us? Stories that draw upon legends testify to the power of narrative to entertain but can also inform us about how storytelling can influence politics. In the so-called post-fact era Mark Laity will discuss the influence of history, culture and narrative on today’s politics. We may think we make rational decisions, but how much is that really so, and is the same thing that makes us love legends and stories driving our decision-making in real life? Mark Laity is the Director of Communications at SHAPE, NATO’s Military HQ. At a time when the influence of information and the internet on international security is rising, Mark is regarded as one of NATO’s foremost experts and thinkers on communications, with extensive experience in conflict zones such as Afghanistan. Also, as a former BBC Defence Correspondent, he reported from the frontlines of many wars, and he is a sought-after speaker on the role of information in modern conflict.

My favourite political commentator, Molly Ivins, once noted, “The thing about democracy is that it is not neat, orderly, or quiet. It requires a certain relish for confusion”. If that is the case, our current political climate, where democracy has led to some unexpected outcomes, should be uniting those of us who are experts in political research, in political observation and analysis – those of us who have a “relish for confusion”. There are however a growing number who question the need for political expertise, for careful academically-informed study of democracy, governing, and the shifting winds of social values. Our profession, as both social and political scientists, is increasingly doubted by those who fail to see the worth of knowledge about who we are – as a society, as a polity, as a changing nation. As such challenges gain credence, we must remember who we are. In times of democratic confusion, we are called, not to write for the sake of outputs, but to engage with our fellow citizens. We are called to share our expertise not just within academia but with external stakeholders and the wider public. We are called to listen not just to the political noise but to those silenced by it. It is our professional responsibility to bridge the gap between the confusion and the political possibilities. As the new Chair of the Political Studies Association, I believe that the profession is well equipped to meet such challenges. The PSA aims to promote and develop the study of politics. Our five-year Strategy commits us to a robust period of growth. With approximately 2,000 members, from the UK and beyond, the community of students of politics – professors and practitioners included – is expanding and deepening. Our initiatives support those just beginning to learn about politics in schools including arranging visiting lectures from leading professionals; assist those teaching A-Level students with our Teachers’ Network; and encourage those new to the profession via our Early Career Network. Our new PSA Lecture Series at the British Library will engage the wider public both in London and, aided by technology, across the UK providing timely expertise on contemporary politics and culture. The PSA commitment to three values - ambition, professionalism and visibility – will drive our operational priorities as well. In 2018 we will launch a redesigned website which will provide space for our members and specialist groups to discuss leading research issues as well as giving external stakeholders access to expert commentary and updates on PSA public events. The PSA is a leading voice as a professional organisation and will continue to grow as a proud conduit for expert research and knowledge sharing. This year’s Awards Ceremony – our sixteenth – provides an opportunity to recognise those who have made an exceptional contribution to the study and the practice of politics. It goes without saying that the Awards Committee had a tough job and none of their decisions were easy and the competition in each category was very strong. Moreover, just like politics itself, it was clear from the debate surrounding specific prizes that the Awards Committee were not going to be able to please ‘all of the people, all of the time’. Debate, controversy and surprise are therefore, to some extent, inevitable but they are also exactly those factors that make politics such a special discipline to either study or work within. Many thanks too to those who made this evening possible: our Awards Committee; our Master of Ceremonies Jon Snow; Avnish Patel, Phil Sooben and all the other members of PSA staff for organising the evening; and our sponsors and partners SAGE, the Alliance for Useful Evidence, Elsevier, and YouGov. It is a delight to welcome you to this event on behalf of the PSA and I hope you have a wonderful evening. Professor Angelia R.

As proud publishers of the PSA’s suite of journals we have long admired the role they play as one of the major learned societies in the social sciences. Not only has the PSA contributed hugely to research and scholarship in this vibrant field, it has done so by maintaining influential links with policy makers and the media and recognising that the practice and study of politics are deeply intertwined. This awards night is a great way to recognise these interconnecting themes and an opportunity to congratulate some of the most prominent figures in 2017. Given SAGE’s own commitment to social science since our founding over fifty years ago, it is obvious why our two organizations are so deeply aligned. We remain an independent publishing company supporting and championing the work of social scientists globally in the belief that their research can and should influence the development of healthy minds and healthy cultures. But what about the next fifty years? The rise of big data and new technologies presents unique opportunities and challenges for social scientists.

  • Brexit: Initial Reflections
    Brexit: initial reflections ANAND MENON AND JOHN-PAUL SALTER* At around four-thirty on the morning of 24 June 2016, the media began to announce that the British people had voted to leave the European Union. As the final results came in, it emerged that the pro-Brexit campaign had garnered 51.9 per cent of the votes cast and prevailed by a margin of 1,269,501 votes. For the first time in its history, a member state had voted to quit the EU. The outcome of the referendum reflected the confluence of several long- term and more contingent factors. In part, it represented the culmination of a longstanding tension in British politics between, on the one hand, London’s relative effectiveness in shaping European integration to match its own prefer- ences and, on the other, political diffidence when it came to trumpeting such success. This paradox, in turn, resulted from longstanding intraparty divisions over Britain’s relationship with the EU, which have hamstrung such attempts as there have been to make a positive case for British EU membership. The media found it more worthwhile to pour a stream of anti-EU invective into the resulting vacuum rather than critically engage with the issue, let alone highlight the benefits of membership. Consequently, public opinion remained lukewarm at best, treated to a diet of more or less combative and Eurosceptic political rhetoric, much of which disguised a far different reality. The result was also a consequence of the referendum campaign itself. The strategy pursued by Prime Minister David Cameron—of adopting a critical stance towards the EU, promising a referendum, and ultimately campaigning for continued membership—failed.

  • BORN to BE HANGED Praise Fo R the Book
    BORN TO BE HANGED Praise fo r the Book While tracing the making of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto-the most popular leader of his people, Dr Syeda Hameed easily identifies him as a self-destroying character in a Greek tragedy. But the chief merit of this book lies in explaining the factors contributing to his meteoric rise and the unravelling of his mind through a reading of his prison letters with Dr Mubashir Hasan's help, and how Bhutto, with a Janus like posture, tried to build a socialist castle on the fo undation of Islamic ideology. The guardians of vested interest were not duped; they hanged him fo r shaking their throne. An eye-opener fo r students of Pakistan's muddled politics. -I.A.
