About the journal
Problems of Post-Communism features readable analysis, reliable information, and lively debate about the communist and post-communist world, with an emphasis on thoughtful but timely coverage of current economic, political, and international issues. The magazine seeks to serve as a place where scholars from different disciplines may converse with one another and with other serious students of communist and post-communist affairs. We also hope to reach researchers and policy makers affiliated with multinational, governmental, and private-sector institutions and organizations from around the world. Above all, we wish to provide materials to educate the next generation of scholars in communist and post-communist studies.
"What impresses me about Problems of Post-Communism is that it is the place where the academy and the policy community meet. Like its predecessor, it brings serious research on the postcommunist world to a broad audience in a timely and lucid manner." -- Eugene Huskey, Stetson University
Abstracting and Indexing: Problems of Post-Communism is indexed or abstracted in ABSEES Online, Social Citation Index, Current Contents: Social and Behavioral Science, Political Science Abstracts, ISI Alerting Services and Social Sci Search.
