Professor Laura McAllister
On Wednesday the 22nd of November at Professor Laura McAllister will deliver the annual lecture of the Welsh Political Archive. In her lecture she will offer an analysis of contemporary Wales, the urgent need for constructive change, and offer ideas on creating a new contract  between the people and the state.

Laura McAllister, Professor of Public Policy and the Governance of Wales at the Wales Governance Centre, Cardiff University said:

“By drawing on my personal as well as professional background in sport and politics, this lecture will challenge us as individuals as well as organisations to rethink how we do politics, and how we can breed better confidence in our country, over time, which could bring a new psychology of success.”

Rob Phillips, Welsh Political Archive said:

"We are very proud to be able to welcome Professor Laura McAllister to deliver this year's lecture at such an interesting time in Welsh politics. The lecture is the pinnacle of the Political Archive's calendar and especially this year as part of the Archive's 40th celebrations. The lecture will be an opportunity to look forward to future developments while we celebrate the great political collections in the Library which preserving the history of Welsh politics for the benefit of the people."

McAllister’s research focuses on Welsh politics and elections, devolution, electoral reform, and gender in politics. She was recently elected as UEFA Vice President and member of the Executive Committee. She is also co-chair of the Independent Commission on the Constitutional Future of Wales.
