Dear friends and colleagues,
we are very excited to announce our next international Annual Workshop, this time in collab with the Institute for Political Science at Heidelberg University!
As you may see in the CfP attached, we will discuss the role of political parties in democracies across the globe from theoretical and empirical perspectives. 
Please feel free to share the call with anyone in your networks who might be interested--and reach out with any questions!
With best wishes on behalf of the DemocracyNet,
Dannica (Fleuss) & Francesco (Veri)
