The Carl Beck Papers
in Russian and East European Studies

The Center supports its own publication, The Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies. This scholarly papers series, named after the first director of the University Center for International Studies, publishes work of both new and more experienced scholars in many disciplines and areas of inquiry.

The Carl Beck Papers fills a unique niche in the publishing of research dealing with the area of the former Soviet Union and East Europe. Submissions to the Papers are anonymously refereed and published as occasional papers. They are devoted to topics ranging across the entire field of Slavic, Russian, Soviet, post-Soviet and East European studies. Each Carl Beck Paper is published on an individual basis, which allows for rapid turnaround, individual advertising and wide and flexible distribution.

The series is a particularly useful vehicle for works of intermediate length—i.e., those between a typical journal article and a book.

Submissions to The Carl Beck Papers are welcome!

We accept rolling submissions throughout the year. Papers will be sent out for a double blind review process, and acceptance is based on anonymous reviews. With questions, contact cbpapers@pitt.edu.
