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 2023-2024 academic year are Monika Nalepa and Zhaotian Luo. The workshop meets in person on Tuesdays from 3:30 PM to 4:50 PM. Copies of the paper will be distributed by email one week in advance.
