Communist and Post-Communist Studies (CPCS) is a peer-reviewed academic journal that covers research on communist and post-communist political systems, movements, and societies. It publishes work on both historical and contemporary developments in countries that have experienced or continue to experience communist rule, as well as comparative analyses of socialist and post-socialist transformations. The journal is published by the University of California Press since 1962.[1][2][3]

History

[edit]

Previously published as Communist Affairs (1962–1967) and Studies in Comparative Communism (1968–1992), following the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of communist regimes in Eastern Europe. The name change reflected an expansion of the journal's focus from comparative studies of communist systems to the broader field of post-communist transformation.
