Hans Daalder Prize

This prize is named in recognition of Hans Daalder, one of ECPR's founding fathers. The prize carries a €1,000 fund, and is awarded for an outstanding paper presented at the biennial ECPR Graduate Student Conference.

The Graduate Student Conference is currently on hold while we develop a new event for young political scientists.

This prize is on hold until the new event is launched.
