Canadian Publications on the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe for 1987

Abstract

This is the twelfth annual bibliography of works pertaining to the Union and Eastern Europe, as well as to the peoples of those countries settled in Canada, published by Canadian scholars. The primary purpose of the bibliography is to provide an up-to-date research tool for persons working in the area. It is also hoped that it will make known the range of activities and areas of expertise of Canadian scholars. The bibliography notes more than 450 monographs, articles, review articles, identifiable sections of books, signed encyclopedia entries, and published occasional papers, as well as seventeen doctoral dissertations accepted by Canadian universities. Reviews, newspaper articles, mimeographed papers, and belles-lettres have been excluded. For the purpose of this bibliography, Soviet and East European refers to all Slavic areas and the remaining territory of the Union, Finland, the Baltic States, Hungary, Romania, Albania, and East Germany (after 1945), but not to Turkey, Austria, Greece, China, or international communism outside the bloc. Scholarly material pertaining to Canadian immigrants from the area of coverage is also listed. The bibliography is for 1987 and covers imprints and journal issues bearing that date. Items dated prior to, but actually published in 1987, as well as items omitted from previous editions of this bibliography, have also been included. (For journals, 1987 is the year of publication unless otherwise indicated.) This bibliography has been compiled primarily from submissions of members of the Canadian Association of Slavists. Scanning of current books and periodicals in the humanities and social sciences has provided additional entries. The compiler thanks all those who submitted listings, and Mary Stevens in particular for checking items not held at U.B.C. In a few instances, recent issues could not be consulted because they were late in production. Readers are urged to bring any omissions to the attention of the compiler and to submit lists of their 1988 and 1989 publications to the journal's offices.
