The contents reflect the broad range of disciplines included within the Academia, as well as its comprehensive European membership. The review will thus include articles covering a wide range of topics written so as to make them accessible to readers from other disciplines. Each issue will include a special section focused on a particular topic. The articles will be by authors mostly located in Europe and some will relate to specifically European questions. The Editors welcome submissions to the Review. ACADEMIA EUROPAEA The Academia Europaea was established in 1988 to bring together scholars from across Europe, East and West, of all academic disciplines. It has already proved to be an admirable medium for tackling problems on a Europe wide basis and especially on an interdisciplinary basis—bringing together scholars from disciplines that would be unlikely to meet otherwise. It organizes symposia at annual meetings which move around Europe and which have covered subjects like the Rights of Minority Groups, the Image of Science, the Study of the Human Genome, Population Migration, and the Search for Meaning in Contemporary Life. It has also established study groups, the first of which has published its findings in a book on 'Schooling in Contemporary European Society', other studies are in progress on Psychological Problems of Youth in a Changing Europe, Energy Forecasting, Higher Education, and Risk Assessment in Relation to Atmospheric Changes. It can be seen that the Academia Europaea has a wide perspective and this is reflected in its new journal the European Review. The Academia is an independent organization based in London.
