Information on the conference location can be found here. You may also access copies of the papers being presented at the conference.
Located on the southern tip of New Zealand’s North Island, Wellington is the country’s capital and second largest city. The southernmost, and most remote, capital city in the world, and sprawling between the Rimutaka Range and the harbour, it is a city of hills and views, giving it a unique charm.On a clear day, the snowcapped mountains of the Kaikoura Ranges are visible to the south across the strait. Over the Rimutaka Range lies the Wairarapa, an agricultural region known for its fine wines. A wonderful setting for the Society’s next conference, which is hosted by Victoria University of Wellington.
ASQPS has a proud track record of securing prominent and interesting keynote speakers for our annual conferences. In 2016 we had the pleasure of hearing from Doug Rivers, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Professor of political science at Stanford University, and President and CEO of YouGov/Polimetrix; and in 2015 we secured Professor D. Sunshine Hillygus, from Duke University.
In 2017, our keynote speaker will be Stephen Ansolabehere, Professor of Government at Harvard University. Professor Ansolabehere is an expert in public opinion and elections, and has published extensively on these and other topics. He is the principal investigator of the Cooperative Congressional Election Study, a collaborative effort of over 60 universities and colleges in the United States.
The call for papers is now closed. There is still time to register, though. Register here. For those not presenting papers, registration for the conference closes November 15.
