When international research on the post communist transition in CEI (the "Central European Initiative", promoted by the Italian government in 1989 and originally known as "Quadrangolare") countries started in 1999, the issues analysed in this book were not on the agenda.

In other words, is the post-communist transition an integral part of a transition which has involved Europe as a whole, since the end of the cold war, in the reconstruction of its political unity?

The Soviet and Post-Soviet Review

Nationalities Papers
Description: Nationalities Papers is the leading journal on nationalism, ethnicity, ethnic conflict and national identity in Central Europe, the Balkans, the former Soviet Union, the Caucasus, the Turkic world and Central Eurasia. Furthermore, the journal also publishes contributions on theories of nationalism, comparative studies of nationalism, and trans- and supranational aspects of interethnic relations and national identity. The journal publishes timely, high quality articles from a variety of disciplines, including history, political science, sociology, anthropology, and literature.
Post-Communist Economies
Description: Post-Communist Economies publishes key research and policy articles in the analysis of post-communist economies. The basic transformation in the past two decades through stabilisation, liberalisation and privatisation has been completed in virtually all of the former communist countries, but despite the dramatic changes that have taken place, the post-communist economies still form a clearly identifiable group, distinguished by the impact of the years of communist rule. Post-communist economies still present distinctive problems that make them a particular focus of research.
Post-Soviet Affairs
Description: Founded in association with American Council of Learned Societies and SSRC, Post-Soviet Affairs is a quarterly primarily devoted to the publication of outstanding research papers in political science and political economy of the former U.S.S.R. Most papers cover Russia, with a distinct focus on current affairs.
Revue d'études comparatives Est-Ouest
Description: this journal was created in 1970 by the CNRS to interrogate the geopolitical turmoil of Europe as a continent which has given rise to a higher level of uncertainty and stronger economical discrepancies. It is a leading authoritative source to a better understanding of the eastern european region and countries, and their own ways towards democracy and market economy. Revue d'études comparatives Est-Ouest plays a defining role in its field of study and contributes to an emerging european forum of research in a wide field of social sciences (economics, sociology, politics, history).
East European Constitutional Review
Description: Since 1992 the EECR has covered the challenges and obstacles of postsocialist law and politics. Its aim is to give an in-the-trenches understanding of the dilemmas of postsocialist legal reform and to serve as a vital and lively forum for discussion and debate about pressing issues of the rule of law. The EECR tracks the constitutional development of the region through quarterly offerings of academic articles, roundtables, and symposia by regional and foreign scholars.
East European Politics and Societies
Description: East European Politics and Societies covers issues in Eastern Europe from social, political, and economic perspectives.

Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies
Description: the Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies seeks to address, in an historical and theoretically-informed manner, the complex historical, economic, political, diplomatic, cultural and security issues that confront the region, in the light of such important developments as the process of European integration, the evolution of NATO, and the more general changes in the international governance system after the end of the Cold War in Eurasia and the terrorist attacks on the United States on 11 September 2001.
Cahiers du Monde Russe

Journal of Communist Studies and Transition Politics
Description: The face of Europe has been transformed by the demise of the Soviet Union and the collapse of communist party rule in Eastern Europe. Within a series of countries, some of them erstwhile members of a Soviet bloc, others once part of the Soviet Union itself, a deep process of adjustment is under way. Retitled to reflect these far-reaching changes, The Journal of Communist Studies and Transition Politics devotes particular attention to this truly epochal process of regime change, including in its material contributions from within the affected societies. At the same time, it follows the effects of this upheaval on communist parties, ruling and non-ruling, both in Europe and in the wider world.
