"Technology and Campaigns"


Special Issue Editor: Costas Panagopoulos



Technology will be featured in the 2006 election U.S. cycle in
prominent and unprecedented ways. Campaigns will capitalize on
advancements in technology to inform target and mobilize voters. This
special issue will explore the impact of innovative uses of
technology for electioneering purposes. It will also consider the
effects of political blogs, email and text-based mobilization
efforts, developments in electronic voting, survey research and
database management for campaigns. This is an intriguing area of
inquiry for scholars who explore the linkages between technology and
elections. The issue will be a collection of high-quality scholarship
from a variety of related disciplines including political science,
computer science, sociology, psychology, and economics.

Proposals for submissions will be due September 15, 2006. Proposals
should be no longer than one page in length and include a tentative
title, abstract and a brief explanation of what is new and
interesting about the proposed work. Submission of the full
manuscript for accepted projects will be due on March 1, 2007.
Manuscripts will be double-blind reviewed, and authors will be
notified about the decision by April 1, 2007. Revised manuscripts
will be due by May 30, 2007. Authors are invited to review formatting
and style details on the SSCORE website for direction. Please email
proposals as .pdf documents to costas at post.harvard.edu with the
