— Book prize awarded annually to the best book on international affairs published in English —

TORONTO and WASHINGTON, Jan. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Janice Gross Stein and Ian Shugart will co-chair the international jury for the 2023 Lionel Gelber Prize. The $50,000 prize is awarded to the best non-fiction book on international affairs published in English by the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy.

This year's jury features a group of leading experts on international affairs, including co-chairs Ian Shugart (Ottawa) and Janice Stein (Toronto), returning juror Francis J. Gavin (Washington), Rosa Brooks (Washington) and Luis Rubio (Mexico).

"For more than three decades, the Prize has highlighted some of the important non-fiction books on international affairs, and, in doing so, has deepened the debate on pressing global issues, from international security to global trade, the future of our digital world to the rise of authoritarianism," said Judith Gelber, Chair of the Lionel Gelber Prize board. "We are delighted to have such an excellent group of jurors to decide this year's prize."

Key dates: The jury will announce its shortlist of five books on February 28, 2023, followed by the release of podcast interviews with the shortlisted authors. The winner will be revealed on April 4, 2023 and will take part in a live prize ceremony event.

About the Prize: The Lionel Gelber Prize is a literary award for the best non-fiction book on international affairs published in English. The prize was founded in 1989 in honour of celebrated Canadian diplomat Lionel Gelber. In 2023, the Prize value increased to $50,000 CAD to the winning book. The award is presented annually by the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy.
