Central Europe Digest
Central Europe Digest (CED) is a monthly publication that highlights important developments in the region that may not make it into Western newspapers. Affiliated writers and associate scholars of CEPA, drawn from the academic, policy and business world in Central Europe write the articles, which not only flag relevant issues, but also provide needed analysis of the wider implications of these events. Their work augments CEPA's in-house research by providing views on the ground in the region on both geopolitics and economics. These writers come from a variety of national and ideological backgrounds, supporting CEPA’s mission of educating the policy-conscious public about events in Central Europe and how they relate to world affairs.
