Author Guidelines

We are waiting for studies, essays and book reviews submitted for the first publication only. The studies are rated by two double-blind reviewers in each case. 

Aims and Scope

Our journal, "Strategic Issues of Northern Hungary ECONOMY-REGION-SOCIETY " is published four times a year (three times in Hungarian language and one is in English language) and its intention is twofold. First one: to ensure wider publicity for studies on analyzing social and economic situation, development opportunities, ways of development in the North-Hungarian region and northern part of the Charpatian Basin. Second one: to introduce scientific and professional regional workshops in the field of regional development, town planning, urban and regional economic researches.

The papers are reviewed before publication, we use a double-blind peer review process! The journal is both, printed and electronically (open-access).
