Project. Separately, and sometimes in coalition, these various groups have initiated and won several APSA Executive Council decisions related to the moving of the annual meeting based on arguments that conditions in the city or hotel in which the meeting is planned, presents a disruptive or hostile environment to significant portions of the membership. Journals: Politics and Society and New Political Science In November 1970, a group of Caucus members created Politics and Society, a journal which would become a major showcase of political analyses through Marxist theory. Changes in internal dynamics in 1973 led to a new focus for the journal, and the 1976 departure of Alan Wolfe removed any connection of the journal to CNPS. By the late 1970s, a broadsheet entitled New Political Science emerged, becoming an official journal in 1979. New Political Science has since become the official publication of the Caucus. Today The Caucus remains a forum for publication, discussion, and the exchange of information for young and established academics with progressive political commitments. The Caucus hosts an annual Saturday evening plenary address at the Annual APSA Meeting on public issues of controversy. The CNPS also presents several juried awards each year, including the Christian Bay Award (best meeting paper), the Michael Harrington Award (best book); Charles McCoy Award (career achievement) and the Cloward & Piven Award (for a deserving social justice organization in the city in which the annual APSA meeting is being held).
