Citation Standards

A citation standard in the journal Central European Journal of Politics applies the so-called Harvard style, i.e. a system of referring directly in the text and the final list of used literature. Therefore, only content-related notes may be placed as footnotes, while references to literature ought to always be included in the text itself.

A DOI is assigned to all reviewed texts in Central European Journal of Politics accepted for publication starting with edition 2/2020.
