The prize

The Research Network on Statehood, Sovereignty, and Conflict seeks to bring together scholars to collaborate and share knowledge on issues of statehood, sovereignty and conflict in different regions of the world. The group's interest is in advancing the understanding of the concepts of statehood and sovereignty and contributing to academic and wider debates on conflicts as well as fostering dialogue among scholars, policymakers, and practitioners working in this field.

The prize seeks to recognise the best Paper presented at the ECPR General Conference Section endorsed by the Research Network that makes, or shows promise for making, a significant contribution to the field, in conceptual, theoretical and/or empirical terms, and demonstrates relevance to current affairs.

Papers were nominated by the Panel Discussants on this basis, and also using this opportunity to highlight the work of early career researchers, and other groups underrepresented in research, such as women, scholars residing in the global south, and LGBT+. Find out more.
