Journal of East Central European Studies

The Journal of East Central European Studies (JECES) appeared under the title “Zeitschrift für Ostforschung” from 1952 until 1994. It serves as a forum for the publication and discussion of the newest research into the history and culture of those historical countries and regions primarily situated on the border areas of modern Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Belarus, the Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. It features, in quarterly issues, essays, papers, research and literature reports as well as book reviews both in German and English. All articles are subject to a double-blind peer review procedure. JECES is published on behalf of the Herder Institute by leading representatives of historical research on East Central Europe.
