East European Politics

East European Politics is an international refereed journal which publishes cutting-edge research covering the government, politics, and societies 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 relating the post-communist region to other parts of the world. EEP accepts historical studies only where they show a clear and direct link to the politics of the contemporary post-communist space. The journal is open to multiple methodological approaches, but we only accept rigorous and clearly outlined research designs demonstrating the highest standards of conceptualisation and theory-building.
