Details

We cordially invite possible contributions to the first issue of European Perspectives. The inaugural issue of the new scientific journal European Perspectives will be released in the fall of 2009 and will be announced at this year's Bled Strategic Forum, August 30–31, 2009. The central topic of this issue is "The Western Balkans: 20 Years After the End of the Cold War".

"European Perspectives" is a new scientific journal which aims at reflecting the European integration ambition in its broader sense, with a special reference to the South Eastern Europe. By doing so, it seeks to contribute to further expansion of the academic and practitioners' network and dialogue as well as the exchange of views among the scientific community within the region and elsewhere. The review would like both to enhance the political and academic interaction and to present an additional tool in the decision-making process for the political elites.

The inaugural issue will be released in the fall of 2009 and will be announced at this year's Bled Strategic Forum, August 30–31, 2009. The central topic of this issue is "The Western Balkans: 20 Years After the End of the Cold War".

We therefore cordially invite possible contributions to the first issue of "European Perspectives". Papers should focus on reflection and contemplation of the past period and changes taking place in this region as well as on the consequences and future development of trends and phenomena stemming from those changes. We welcome contributions that focus on political, sociological, social, security, economic and legal as well as ethnic, cross-cultural, minority and cross-ethnical studies. The ability to provide an insightful analysis of the transition process and how it changed the region or a particular country or part thereof shall be deemed an important factor in assessing the contributions.

In order to enable a timely preparation of this inaugural issue, we would appreciate it if authors expressed their interest in publishing a paper, along with a short abstract (of 200 words maximum), prior to July 15, 2009. The finished manuscripts, which will undergo a double-blind peer review, are due by September 1, 2009.
