Short answers, pulled from the story.
The journal began its publication run in 1949 under the title Soviet Studies. This founding year coincided with early Cold War tensions that made research into the region both difficult and urgent.
Editors renamed the publication to Europe-Asia Studies in 1993 following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The change reflected the shifting geopolitical landscape where former republics like Ukraine or Kazakhstan sought independent identities.
Routledge serves as the primary publisher handling distribution and production logistics for the journal. The University of Glasgow hosts the Institute of Central and East European Studies which oversees editorial direction through a partnership established since 1949.
JSTOR provides online access to issues spanning from 1949 through 2016 with specific restrictions applied. A seven-year moving wall means recent volumes remain unavailable until they age past this threshold before digital access is granted.
The journal maintains relationships with related publications like Central Asian Survey and Problems of Post-Communism. East European Politics and Societies serves as another key publication within the same academic ecosystem that studies post-Soviet transformations across Eurasia.
