Polish American Studies:
Polish American Studies, the Association's interdisciplinary, refereed scholarly journal, is published twice each year. It is a member of the History Cooperative and JSTOR electronic databases and is abstracted in Historical Abstracts, America: History and Life, and The Catholic Periodical and Literature Index. The editors welcome scholarship including articles, edited documents, bibliographies and related materials dealing with all aspects of the history and culture of Poles in the Western Hemisphere. They particularly welcome contributions that place the Polish experience in historical and comparative perspective by examining its relationship to other ethnic experiences. Contributions from any discipline in the humanities and social sciences are welcome. Recent acceptance rates for unsolicited manuscripts were: 28.6% in 2007, 47.2% in 2006 and 36.4% in 2005.
