LAPOP Lab at Vanderbilt University announces a competition for this year's Seligson Prize.

The Seligson Prize is awarded annually to the best scholarship (paper, book, dissertation, or other scholarly work) using LAPOP's AmericasBarometer data that was published or finalized in the prior two calendar years. The prize is named in honor of Mitchell Seligson, the founder of LAPOP and a pioneer in the study of public opinion in Latin America.

Nominated works must make extensive use of AmericasBarometer data and have a publication date in 2018 or 2019, either in print or online. All are welcome to nominate or self-nominate a scholarly work for consideration by emailing a copy of the work to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. The 2020 award committee is comprised of Matt Singer of University of Connecticut (chair), Nara Pavão of the Federal University of Pernambuco, and Tiffany Barnes of the University of Kentucky.

Nominations will be accepted until March 15, 2020. We expect to announce the winner of the 2020 Seligson Prize in May. The winner will receive a cash prize.
