Call for Nominations (Deadline 1st July 2020):
Clay Morgan Award for Best Book in Environmental Political Theory

The Environmental Political Theory Section of the Western Political Science 
Association (WPSA) invites nominations for the Fourth Annual Clay Morgan Award 
for the Best Book in Environmental Political Theory.

The purpose of this award is to recognize outstanding scholarship, published in 
a book-length monograph, which utilizes the resources, literatures, and 
approaches of the field of political theory to address intersections between 
contemporary or historical environmental challenges on the one hand and the 
philosophical and ideological concepts, principles, and debates animating 
political life on the other. While the focus of the award is on political 
theory, we welcome books that make a contribution to the field from related 
disciplines – including, but not limited to, anthropology, environmental 
humanities, ethnic studies, geography, indigenous studies, philosophy, 
political economy, science and technology studies, or sociology.

Nominations must have been originally published within the last two calendar 
years (2019-2020). A book may be re-nominated in its second year of 
eligibility. Books may be co-authored, but edited collections are not eligible. 
Questions may be directed to the committee chair, Chris Buck: 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.

The committee anticipates announcing the award winner by 10th September 2020. 
The book will be awarded a roundtable discussion at the next WPSA annual 
meeting, in Seattle in April 2021.

Nominations will be accepted from authors, colleagues, and/or publishers. To be 
considered, arrangements should be made for the publisher to mail copies of the 
nominated physical book or ebook to the three committee members, below, to 
arrive by 1st July 2020.
