As many of you by now have heard, the American Political Science Association’s annual meeting, scheduled for Labor Day weekend in Los Angeles, has been thrown into turmoil by the ongoing UNITE HERE Local 11 Union strike. In solidarity with the workers, POMEPS (along with the APSA’s MENA Politics Section) has sadly decided to cancel its annual reception usually held in conjunction with the conference.
We will instead host a reception at MESA in Montreal on Thursday, November 2, 2023, and we hope to see you there.
