CES invites all affiliates, including Visiting Scholars, to submit papers for publication in the Open Forum series. Open Forum is intended to make Europe-focused research in progress available to a wide audience.

CES recently published two new working papers in its Open Forum series: Central Europe's Descent into Autocracy: On Authoritarian Populism by Bojan Bugarič and The Role of Cross-Class Alliances and Elites in Coordinated Employment Relations in Denmark co-authored by Christian Lyhne Ibsen. The authors are former Visiting Scholars and the papers reflect Europe-focused research they conducted during their time at CES.

CES invites applications for the 2019-2020 Visiting Scholars Program by November 1, 2018. In addition, CES is accepting applications for the German Kennedy Memorial Fellowship by October 15, 2018.

CES welcomes 25 Visiting Scholars in 2018-2019. This year’s scholars come from eight disciplines and hail from nine European countries as well as Australia, China, Turkey and the United States.
