Sara Goodman, UCI political science assistant professor, is the recipient of the 2012
James B. Christoph Prize for the best conference paper on British politics, presented
by the American Political Science Association’s British Politics Group. The honor
recognizes her study on Western European states’ integration requirements for citizenship
and residence. She finds that while states collaborate on similar requirements, the
ways in which they are applied differ greatly due to varying existing citizen membership
policies and politic pressures. The study is published in the October issue of World Politics.
Goodman joined the UCI faculty in fall 2009 following a six month post doctoral fellowship
at Maastricht University in the Netherlands. She completed her Ph.D. at Georgetown
University and specializes in the study of membership requirements for citizenship
acquisition through naturalization.
