| Event Description: |
Super PAC's, microtargeting, novel voter mobilization, recordbreaking fundraising, the gender gap, early voting, hidden cameras, and much more. As the 2012 election begins to fade into our collective memory, scholars are rolling up their sleeves to explore whether recent trends will alter the very nature of our systems. Helping us understand these undercurrents and to sort out long-term implications will be a team of renowned scholars:
Ray La Raja, Associate Professor of Political Science, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
Jennifer Lucas, Associate Professor, School of Politics, St. Anselm College
Michael Franz, Associate Professor of Government, Bowdoin College
Tony Corrado, Professor of Government, Colby College
Professor Dan Shea, director of the Goldfarb Center for Public Affairs and Civic Engagement and professor of government, will moderate. |
