Working Paper Series & Archive
Association of Population Centers
The APCA Working Paper Series gathers and disseminates original population science research papers. These workingpapers are authored or coauthored by scholars who are faculty or postdoctoral affiliates of the Association of Population Centers (APC) population centers.Workingpapers can also be authored by ABD student affiliates of APC population centers; faculty affiliates must submit the papers on student affiliates’ behalf.
The APCA working paper series is an effort led by Jennie Brand, Giovanna Merli, and Phillip Cohen and managed by the Association of Population Centers. PRI associates and graduate students are encouraged to disseminate their pre-publication work in this series. Papers in the series include works in progress and pre-publication versions of articles. Many of these papers will be subsequently published in journals or edited volumes. When they are, APC will make updated citations available.
Working papers will be archived at SocArXiv, an online server for the social sciences, which is dedicated to the proliferation of open science.Working papers will also be archived to RePEc through SocArXiv.
