he Political Theory Network was established at the NZPSA AGM in 2008 to promote the development of political theory and to provide a supportive environment for academics, postgraduates and other interested parties in the field within Aotearoa New Zealand. We organise a political theory stream at the annual NZPSA conference, and aim to keep each other informed of our recent publications, visiting theorists and related theory events in the region.
Our current convenor is Dr Stephen Winter from the University of Auckland. Please email Stephen if you wish to join and have your details included on this page: s.******@au******.nz.
