Special issue information
East European Politics welcomes high-quality and cutting-edge proposals for themed special issues. Our policy is to consider only promising proposals that are within our scope. A special issue will typically comprise 8 articles, plus a 5,000-word introduction. We also run symposia of 3, 4 or 5 articles, plus a shorter introduction. The upper word limit for each manuscript is 8,000 words.
Our main criteria for selecting special issue proposals are:
- (Expected) quality and impact of the articles and overall volume;
- Originality of the theme and/or the methodology of the research in relation to extant scholarship.
Please submit your proposal to [email protected]. The proposal should include the following:
- An overview of the proposed volume, including reference to the points raised above;
- Names and affiliations of all authors;
- 200-word abstracts for each proposed article;
- A list of proposed reviewers for each piece, none of whom is linked to the contributors through institutional affiliations and work collaborations (past or present);
- A timetable to the final submission.
