In a meeting of APSA's international committee in September 2003, APSA President Susanne Rudolph suggested the need for a “mutual de-parochialization” in our knowledge practices. She meant a closer interaction between American and non-American political scientists and a greater cross-fertilization of their substantive and methodological concerns. Margaret Levi, the President-elect of APSA, also emphasized the need for a greater internationalization of American political science, with special emphasis paid to the so-called international public realm.
