| The American Academy of Political and Social Science was created in 1889 to promote the progress of the social sciences. It did so by creating a forum in which research on contemporary political, economic, and social issues could help inform public policy as well as enlighten the intellectually curious. The Annals, the Academy's bimonthly journal, and the Academy's annual meetings, symposia, and special publications have served as vehicles through which its objectives have been achieved for nearly 115 years. Its new programs will help advance these achievements further.
