Annual Conference: Democracy at Risk
The fifth annual QIPSR Conference entitled Democracy at Risk will take place on Friday, November 7th in the Gallery of Young Library. Renowned comparative scholars will present research that examines threats to democracy in several regions of the world, including the U.S. Each presenter will give a talk about their own work. We will also have a working lunch where the speakers answer questions about the different data and survey projects they manage.
