The London School of Economics (LSE) and the UN Development Programme (UNDP) have published a new issue of their journal "Development and Transition. From theory to policy in Europe and the CIS"

The journal appears three times and aims to be a forum for policy-oriented discussions and debates about how the nature, evolution and challenges of development and transition intersect in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union and also Turkey.
