Robert & Jessie Cox Award
Established in 1997, the Robert W. and Jessie Cox Award honors the best
graduate student paper of critical inquiry into international relations. The
purpose of the prize is to encourage critical study of international
political economy, world orders, and civilizations. Papers submitted should
relate, broadly, to the main normative principles for which the Coxes stand,
including: diffusion of power; democratization; mutual respect for distinct
civilizations, concern for the biosphere; and, greater equality among
societies, genders, and races.
ABOUT THE AWARD:
* The winner will receive a $500.00 cash prize and a plaque at the
awards presentations at the annual ISA conference.
* Graduate students are invited to submit their papers for the
competition themselves. In addition, department chairs, program directors,
deans, chairs of sessions at ISA annual or regional meetings, or from chairs
of sessions at other meetings of international studies associations are
invited and encouraged to nominate submissions.
* Nominations, including copies of the paper, should be sent to the
Chair of the Cox Award Committee. Submissions should arrive by October 20 of
each year. Submissions must be in English, not be considered for any other
ISA award, and not exceed 10,000 words. Submissions should, if possible, be
made electronically.
* Stephen Gill and James Mittelman, co-editors of the book Innovation
and Transformation in International Studies, a volume honoring Robert W. and
Jessie Cox and funding this Award, will name two (2) members of the
Committee to award this prize. The ISA President will name three (3)
members, including the Committee Chair. All members will serve three-year terms.
* The Committee Chair is responsible for notifying the Recipient of the
Award and encouraging the Recipient to attend the Annual Convention at which
the Award is to be presented so as to receive the Award in person.
