Journal of Modern Russian History and Historiography

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Modern Russian History and Historiography is a yearly publication devoted to the history and historiography of imperial Russia, the Soviet Union, and post-Soviet Russia.

We seek a wide range of submissions, including monographic articles with a significant historiographical content, documentary publications, historiographical essays on large themes in Russian history, critical reviews, and memoirs.

We have the ability to publish submissions in major European languages, including Russian, and a willingness to consider publishing long texts that would exceed the word limits usually imposed by other journals.
