The Editorial Board of Problems of Post-Communism invites submissions for upcoming issues of the journal. Problems of Post-Communism, a publication of M.E. Sharpe, covers the contemporary societies of the communist and post-communist world.

Upcoming issues will cover topics such as regime stability, migration, and energy politics. We are actively soliciting papers on these topics, and on other topics of broad interest to those who study the region.

The journal is edited by Dr. Dmitry Gorenburg and Professor Ronald Linden of the University of Pittsburgh, in cooperation with the National Council for Eurasian and East European Research (NCEEER).
