        The Electoral Integrity Project

We focus upon three issues:

  * /When do elections meet international standards of electoral
    integrity? /
  * /What happens when elections fail to do so?/
  * /And what can be done to mitigate these problems/?

    Call for submissions:

most beautiful cities. Stipends are available for certain positions. We

      New book: Contentious Elections

Recent decades have seen growing concern about controversial contests 
that end in a flurry of protests and violence. There have been growing 
attempts to understand the causes and consequences of contentious 
elections. It is timely to take stock of these developments.
This volume, based on an APSA workshop held in Chicago in August 2013, 
brings together a distinguished range of international scholars of 
international relations, comparative politics, and political behavior. 
Their chapters analyze new evidence; compare alternative theoretical 
frameworks used to explain the causes of contentious elections; and 
apply these insights to understand several cases and global comparisons.
