Call for Papers

The NISPAcee Journal is predominantly devoted to public administration and public policy issues in Central and Eastern Europe. The main goal is to publish top quality papers based on own empirical research carried out in Central and Eastern Europe, theoretical papers developing general public administration and public policy theory, or their specific dimensions in the region.

The Journal will serve all interested parties – academicians, politicians and public officials - to help develop public administration and public policy theory and practice in the region. A high quality standard review process is the principal quality assurance tool of the Journal and the intention is to become one of the top periodicals in the area.

The Journal is published twice per year. The first issue includes selected peer-reviewed articles. The second issue is based on papers from TED (EGPA/NISPAcee Trans-European Dialogue). The TED is an annual scholarly high-level focused conference on a timely topic in Public Administration. The first TED conference 2008 was focused on the theme of a Neo-Weberian State (NWS), in its empirical and theoretical approach, and in essence in its hypothetical status. The main theme of the second TED 2009 is relations citizens versus customers.

We invite colleagues to submit their research papers in English for consideration. Manuscripts should be sent in electronic form at whatever time.
