Submissions Are Invited for
The American Politics Group’s
2020-21 Richard E. Neustadt Book Prize
(Generously Supported by the University of Cambridge Mellon Fund)
The Richard E. Neustadt Book Prize, of £500, is well established as the top prize in the UK devoted to publications on US politics.
In recognition of the valuable contribution made over the years to APG’s work by our colleagues in other European countries, eligibility is again extended to include authors based at any university in Europe as well as the UK.
Books published in either 2020 or 2021 are eligible.
Works nominated for the 2020-21 Richard E. Neustadt Book Prize must be:
· in the field of US government and politics (including political history and foreign policy)
· published in the calendar years 2020 and 2021 and in the English language
· authored by an academic employed at a university in the UK or mainland Europe
· entered for consideration by the closing date of 31 December 2021
The 2020-21 prize will be awarded by the panel of judges to the book that they consider to be the best from those nominated.
The £500 prize is generously supported and fully funded by the University of Cambridge Mellon Fund.
Entrants for the prize should arrange for four copies of their book to be sent to the co-chair of the American Politics Group at the following address:
