FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

22st March 2007, Washington, DC and New York, NY

The American Political Science Association and Cambridge
University Press are pleased to announce their renewed journals
publishing partnership. Begun in 2002, when Cambridge began
publishing the American Political Science Review and PS:
Political Science & Politics on behalf of the APSA, and expanded
in 2003 to include the launch of Perspectives on Politics, this
relationship has been beneficial to the worldwide political
science community.

The American Political Science Review is political science's
premier scholarly research journal, providing peer-reviewed
articles and review essays from subfields throughout the
discipline.

Perspectives on Politics provides peer-reviewed essays which
synthesize and extend significant research and developments in
all dimensions of political science scholarship.

PS: Political Science & Politics provides critical analysis of
contemporary political phenomena and is the journal of record for
the discipline of political science, reporting on research,
teaching, and professional development.

Michael Brintnall, Executive Director of the American Political
Science Association, comments, "It is a privilege to report that
APSA will continue to work closely with Cambridge University
Press.  Cambridge understands and values both academic integrity
and production efficiency.

"Publishing scholarship today is a collaborative effort - between
the author and editor, and among many institutions that support
professional community, underwrite peer review, and distribute
knowledge.  The scholarly press is a vitally important part of
this network.  We are pleased to continue our partnership with a
university press whose values -- in particular on respect for the
scholarly process and mission to transfer of knowledge at a
reasonable cost -- align with the values of the Association."

"We are delighted that the premier political science organization
has chosen to continue publishing with Cambridge.  As a leading
political science publisher, our goal is to provide the highest
quality scholarship to the research community, and we look
forward to further increasing availability and usage of the APSA
journals worldwide," said Ian Banbery, Journals Marketing
Director at Cambridge University Press.
