We are delighted to announce that the UK Political Studies Association has launched a new prize in recognition of Professor Shirin Rai鈥檚 "significant contributions to the discipline of feminist International Relations and International Political Economy."

The Shirin M. Rai dissertation prize, for the best dissertation in International Relations, has now officially been launched. A blog announcing the PSA鈥檚 new framework for prizes and awards, and further information about the application process, can be accessed here: .

While many professional associations name prizes after those who have retired, the PSA鈥檚 new framework is designed to acknowledge active and leading scholars in the discipline; very many congratulations to Shirin on this hugely impressive accolade, which is yet further recognition of her leading status in the discipline and an important projection of PAIS鈥� standing in the field.

The Politics Society recently hosted Baroness D'Souza, former Lord Speaker, who discussed her vision for the House of Lords.

The event was filmed by RaW and is available to view below:

After her talk, she also was interviewed by RaW, you can find the link for the interview .
