The deadline for your news and contributions is November 20, 2007.

The Newsletter publishes texts in English, French, Spanish or German. Shorter contributions and news in Russian, Polish, Italian and Portuguese are also welcome, yet they will get translated.

With the 2008 Newsletter edition, we decided to revive a Newsletter section that some readers might know from the 1990s – a bibliography of articles published in scholarly journals worldwide on the history of Communism and related topics (see VIII.2 in the list above). Especially here we need your contributions: if you have published an  
article in this field of studies in the year 2007, please send us the full bibliographical information (plus an abstract if available) and we will gladly include it into the bibliography.

Information on the International Newsletter and its past issues can be found on our homepage: http://www.mzes.uni-mannheim.de/projekte/incs/.


Wishing you successful activities,
All the best,

Dr. Bernhard H. Bayerlein (executive editor)
