Aims & Scope
East European Politics is a refereed journal which publishes articles in the government, politics and international relations of the post-communist space. In geographical terms, EEP covers the entire post-communist region, including East Central and South Eastern Europe, Russia and all the other countries of the former Soviet Union.
The journal publishes original scholarship on political developments in individual countries, together with cross-country comparative analyses and studies of the relations between post-communist regions and other parts of the world, including internationally based organizations. EEP accepts historical studies only where they show a clear and direct link to the politics of the contemporary post-communist space.
In addition to research articles and a substantial book reviews section, EEP publishes thematic special issues. The journal also publishes regular ‘symposium' sections and review articles devoted to briefer analysis of particular events, political issues and important theoretical and conceptual developments. The Editors welcome proposals for these special collections.
All research articles published in EEP have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and evaluation by two anonymous referees.
