Dear Colleagues, It's the time of the year to renew the call for nominations for next year's Sprout Award. If you or someone you know has just published a book please make sure to ask the publisher to submit it for the award. All details are below.
Please forward this message to your networks to ensure that good books are nominated! ***Harold and Margaret Sprout Award*** *CALL FOR NOMINATIONS* ISA-ESS members and others who know of books, or have published books of their own, that they wish to see nominated for the Harold and Margaret Sprout Award are encouraged to contact publishers as soon as possible. The Award is sponsored by the Environmental Studies Section, and is given to the best book in the field, one that makes a contribution to theory and interdisciplinarity, shows rigor and coherence in research and writing, and offers accessibility and practical relevance. Nominated books should address some aspect of one or more environmental, pollution or resource issues from a broadly international or transnational perspective, including works in (for example) global, interstate, transboundary, North-South, foreign policy, comparative or area studies. Environmental subjects of books can include (for example) environmental law, diplomacy, transnational activism, natural resource use, global change, sustainable development, biodiversity, transboundary pollution control, and the like. Nominated works must be published during 2018 or 2019. Books with a 2020 copyright date are welcome provided that they are released by the end of 2019 and review copies can be sent by the nomination deadline. Each publisher may nominate more than one book, and books nominated last year can be re-nominated. The committee members will begin reading the books as soon as they arrive. The Committee must complete its review and reach a decision by Fall 2019; the 2020 award will be presented at the annual meeting of the ISA in Honolulu on 25-28 March 2020. Therefore, *we need to receive notice of your nominations and receive copies of the nominated works by August 5, 2019*. (Please note that committee members are located in four different countries, which will require appropriate shipping arrangements so that books reach us on time.) Publishers wishing to nominate books should *send* *one copy of each book to EACH member* of the Sprout Award Committee. The names and addresses of committee members are listed below. Please include a note or letter with the book(s) indicating that they are nominated for the Sprout Award so that we can distinguish them from other books we receive. The names and contact information for each committee member are below. *Current members of the Harold and Margaret Sprout Award Committee:* Thomas Hickmann University of Potsdam, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences August-Bebel-Str. 89 14482 Potsdam GERMANY hickm...@uni-potsdam.de Kimberly R.
