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 faculty sponsors for the 2024-2025 academic year will rotate quarterly. The workshop meets in person every other Tuesday from 3:30 PM to 4:50 PM. Copies of the paper will be distributed by email one week in advance.
