Totalitarian and 20th Century Studies

Totalitarian and 20th Century Studies

About the Journal

In the journal “Totalitarian and 20th Century Studies”, we present the results of new historical, political scientific, legal, and sociological research relative to the phenomenon of the 20th century’s totalitarian regimes, as well as to issues connected to the political, social, and economic history of Central and Eastern Europe. Analyzing totalitarian systems in terms of their practices and the ideologies behind them, and at the same time focusing on the history of the countries on which they left their mark, allows for a broader understanding of the 20th -century history of our region. The journal’s interdisciplinary approach provides a unique platform for the exchange of ideas between historians, lawyers, political scientists and sociologists specializing in the most dramatic events and processes of the 20th century. The journal is published annually.
