Problems of Post-Communism
Editor: Robert T. Huber, National Council for Eurasian and East European Research (NCEEER)
Associate Editor: Ronald H. Linden, University of Pittsburgh
Managing Editor: Ann E. Robertson, NCEEER (popc@nceeer.org)

The post-communist countries are the most rapidly changing societies of Europe and Asia. For insight into this twenty-first century revolution, there is no better source than Problems of Post-Communism. Emphasis is placed on timely research covering current economic, political, security, and international developments and trends in Russia and China, Central Europe and Central Asia, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. Clarity and readability make the articles fully accessible to researchers, policy makers, and students alike.

"Problems of Post-Communism is an unparalleled teaching tool. Its articles, written by some of our best experts in the field, are timely, insightful, and clear. Most important for me in considering them for classroom adoption has been the fact that these articles are presented in a style that is accessible to my students." -- Philip G. Roeder, University of California, San Diego

"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

"One of the most relevant and readable foreign affairs journals for both policymakers and scholars following the ongoing transitions in Central and Eastern Europe and Eurasia. Problems of Post-Communism helps officials keep current and maintain a dialogue on scholarly research and thinking on a wide range of critical issues." -- Ken Roberts, Bureau of Intelligence and Research, U.S. Department of State

"Problems of Post-Communism consistently publishes the most up-to-date empirical research. ... The topicality and clarity of the articles make them helpful in teaching undergraduate courses." --Kathryn Hendley, University of Wisconsin
