Politics in Residence at Gladstone's Library
Submission period: Monday 28th March 2022 - Friday 6th May 2022 (postmark deadline)
We are very pleased to say that our Politics in Residence programme has restarted. Please see the submission guidelines for how to enter.
Politics in Residence at Gladstone’s Library recognises the best written expressions of political thought, particularly that which encourages political debate with a public audience. Developed from the Library’s successful Writer in Residence programme, Politics in Residence recognises some of the best non-fictional writing in English.
The prize rewards thoughtful, well-researched considerations of contemporary political topics. We take ‘political’ to mean any cultural, spiritual, economic, political, social or ethical issue. The prize does not distinguish between political leanings or affiliations; all submissions, however, must be aimed firmly at engaging the general public. Creative non-fiction, journalism, lifewriting and biography are all eligible.
