Page 5 - The Transdanubian Research Institute 70 years of publishing

Basic HTML Version

After 1984 the publishing activity of Centre for Regional Studies became
very diversified.
One of the most important publications is
Tér és
Társadalom
/
Space and Society/
the Institute’s quarterly
journal of regional science founded in 1987. It is special
among scientific journals because it does not publish
the results of a single discipline, but insteas it focuses
on a
problem:
It examines the relationship between space and society from the
point of view of different branches of science.
The majority of the authors of
Space and Society
work in the institutes of CRS HAS, including the
Transdanubian Research Institute as well.
During the nearly 30-year history of the journal editors were changing and
during the operation of CRS HAS the journal was edited at different places and
in different spirits. The journal was edited by
Edit Pfeil
editor in Pecs between
1993-1995 and the editor in chief was
János Rechnitzer
.
Other works of the CRS Transdanubian Research Institute’s past 30
years of publishing activities are partly included in various series and partly
available under separate volumes.
Discussion Papers
and
Discussion Papers Special
series
are the major English-language publication forums for the
Centre’s researchers.
The editor of the series was
László Hrubi
first who was followed by
Zoltán Gál,
and now
Gábor Lux
is the
editor. They are all from the Transdanubian Research Institute.
Of the 90 issues of the
Discussion Papers
series so far, 40
studies have been written by the researchers of Transdanubian Research
Institute.
The series
Discussion Papers Special,
which includes materials of
international conferences and international research projects organized by the
Institute has 14 issues now.
The ’Közlemények /
Papers/
’ series of Transdanubian Research Institute
was replaced by the series
Regional and Urban Studies
starting in 1987.
The
nine volumes of the series in 800 copies were published by the Academic
Press, series editor
Gyula Horvath,
under which the monographs of four
researchers from Pécs
(Zoltán Hajdú, Ilona Pálné Kovács, Gyula Horváth,
Ferenc Erdősi)
were published.
