Welcome to the Comparative Politics Workshop (CPW) at the University of Chicago!

CPW provides an opportunity for graduate students, faculty members and outside speakers to present their work and receive feedback. The workshop meets in person every Monday from 10:20 AM to 11:50 AM in CISSR Conference Room. Copies of the paper will be distributed by email one week in advance.
