Slovo

Volume 21.1 is now available.

Editorial Statement

Slovo is a fully refereed, twice-yearly journal, edited and managed by postgraduates of the UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies. This journal aims to discuss and interpret Russian, Eurasian, Central and East European affairs, covering the fields of anthropology, economics, film, geography, history, international studies, linguistics, literature, media, politics and sociology.

Slovo has presented postgraduates with what has in many cases been their first publishing opportunity. It is a refereed journal in which they have been able to present their ideas and research alongside that of members of staff. Fully managed by the postgraduate community, this has meant that students have from time to time refereed the work of their own teachers!

From its humble beginnings (the first edition appeared as a slim volume in May 1988 and included contributions from staff members Julian Graffy, Geoffrey Hosking and George Schöpflin) Slovo has gone from strength to strength culminating in the presentation of a special edition following the first annual postgraduate conference, held biennially at SSEES.

Now with a new contract from Maney Publishing, the journal will have a consistent means of supply making Slovo more appealing for libraries and institutions. The publication will still retain its student-led character, however, with editorship residing entirely within the SSEES postgraduate community. The partnership with Maney will strengthen Slovo's reputation as a platform for high quality postgraduate work on the region covered.
