Journals (in ABC order) Comparative European Politics An
international forum for research, theory and debate on the comparative
politics and political economy of contemporary Europe within and beyond
the European Union, the processes of European integration and
enlargement and the place of Europe and European states within
international/global political and economic dynamics.
Forum für osteuropäische Ideen- und ZeitgeschichteA
research journal devoted to the history of the communist era in Central
and Eastern Europe. "Forum" aims to bridge the gap between Eastern and
Western scientific communities. Its editors translate and publish
documents and articles from central and Eastern European scientists,
especially concerning new findings from the archives in Prague,
Budapest, Moscow, Warsaw and other cities. Religion Compass: Political Religions'Political
Religion' is a hybrid discipline situated at the nexus of religious,
social, historical, cultural, and ideological studies. It is the study
of how, responding to the tradition-eroding conditions of globalizing
modernity, religions can be melded into secular ideological forces and
secular ideologies synthesised into 'sacred' causes, often experienced
by their protagonists with the intensity of an absolute belief.
Journal for the Study of RadicalismThe
journal engages in serious, scholarly exploration of the forms,
representations, meanings, and historical influences of radical social
movements. With sensitivity and openness to historical and cultural
contexts of the term, we loosely define 'radical,' as distinguished
from 'reformers,' to mean groups who seek revolutionary alternatives to
hegemonic social and political institutions, and who use violent or
non-violent means to resist authority and to bring about change.
Journal of Political IdeologiesThe
journal is dedicated to the analysis of political ideology both in its
theoretical and conceptual aspects, and with reference to the nature
and roles of concrete ideological manifestations and practices. The
journal serves as a major discipline-developing vehicle for an
innovative, growing and vital field in political studies, exploring new
methodologies and illuminating the complexity and richness of
ideological structures and solutions that form, and are formed by,
political thinking and political imagination.
Modernism/ModernityConcentrating
on the period extending roughly from 1860 to the present, the journal
focuses on the methodological, archival, and theoretical exigencies
particular to modernist studies. It encourages an interdisciplinary
approach linking music, architecture, the visual arts, literature, and
social and intellectual history. The journal's broad scope fosters
dialogue between social scientists and humanists about the history of
modernism and its relations tomodernization.
Patterns of PrejudiceA
forum for exploring the historical roots and contemporary varieties of
social exclusion and the demonization or stigmatisation of the Other.
It probes the language and construction of 'race', nation, colour, and
ethnicity, as well as the linkages between these categories. It
encourages discussion of issues at the top of the public policy agenda,
such as asylum, immigration, hate crimes and citizenship.
The Russian ReviewA
major academic journal of Russian studies. It publishes scholarly
articles and book reviews in the areas of history, literature, film,
fine arts, culture, society, and politics of the peoples of Russia.
West European PoliticsThe
journal covers political and social issues in Western Europe. Its
comprehensive scope, embracing all the major political and social
developments in all West European countries, including the European
Union, makes it essential reading for both political practitioners and
academics.
Various resources Backdoor Broadcasting Company The
Company’s Academic Service specializes in web-casting academic
conferences, symposia, public lectures, workshops and seminars in order
to further the dissemination of academic research.
The
European Consortium for Political
ResearchAn

scientists in nearly 300 institutions throughout Europe and beyond.
The ECPR Standing Group on Extremism
& DemocracyThe
Standing Group provides a platform and infrastructure to the broad
range of scholars working on various aspects of 'extremism and
democracy' around the world. The main focus of the Standing Group is on
the political aspects of extremism. Although the term 'extremism' is
used, scholars working with other terms to describe similar phenomena
(such as fascism, fundamentalism, populism, radicalism, terrorism,
etc.) are also welcome.
Russian Nationalism - a discussion groupThis
website/mailing group is designed as a forum of scholarly exchange for
students, researchers, journalists and others interested in the history
and current permutations of Russian right-wing thought and politics.
The Pulse Project (Podcasting, University
Lectures & Science Education)The
Pulse-Project offers a wide range of freely accessible audio and video
lectures for both general and specialised audiences, and delivered by
eminent academics. It hopes to reflect and inform debates amongst
academics, students, and the wider public alike, and to thereby engage
with the formative scientific questions of our time.
National Identity in Russia from 1961The
project moves beyond ideology, political programmes, and voting
patterns in order to examine views of the nation and Russianness among
ordinary Russians, and to explore how far these may be traced back to
the late Soviet era. The central themes are 'tradition' that means
cultural memory, a self-consciously recognised relationship with the
past, and 'deterritorialisation', which refers to the stresses placed
on national and personal identity by migrancy, travel, and emigration.
The SOVA Centre for Information
and AnalysisThe
Moscow-based Russian non-profit organisation that conducts
informational and research work on such topics as nationalism and
xenophobia, relations between the secular society and churches, and
political radicalism.
