TPM Policy on Reprinting

The Society for Political Methodology encourages all types of relevant submissions to The Political Methodologist. Recently we received a request to reprint two articles from the Spring 1995 issue: Larry Bartels' "Symposium on Designing Social Inquiry, Part 1" and Henry Brady's "Symposium on Designing Social Inquiry, Part 2: Doing Good and Doing Better" in the second edition of Rethinking Social Inquiry (Brady and Collier, forthcoming). Congratulations to both. To clarify our policy on reprints, all submitted work by authors that is published in The Political Methodologist remains solely the intellectual property of the author and may be used by him/her for other purposes. We ask only that authors and publishers notify the editorial staff of The Political Methodologist such that we may have some measure of the impact outside of the original publication.

If you would like to receive a paper copy or if you have requested a paper copy and would like to go back to receiving only email notification, please use your APSA User ID and password to change your settings.
