The Central Asia-Caucasus Institute & Silk Road Studies Program
is a joint transatlantic research and policy center. The Joint Center has
offices in Washington and Uppsala, and is affiliated with the Paul H. Nitze
School of Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins University and the
Department of Eurasian Studies of Uppsala University. It is the first Center
of its kind in Europe and North America, and is today firmly established as
a leading center for research and policy worldwide, serving a large and
diverse community of analysts, scholars, policy-watchers, business leaders
and journalists.
The Joint Center aims to be at the forefront
of research on issues of conflict, security and development in the region;
and to function as a focal point for academic, policy, and public discussion
of the region through its applied research, its publications, teaching,
research cooperation, public lectures and seminars.
The publication program is substantial --
publishing books, journals, e-journals, papers, news digests and fact
sheets. Asia-Studies Full-Text Online carries the full-text of three
publications series from the Institute:
- Central Asia-Caucasus Institute Analyst
- China and Eurasia Forum Quarterly

The Central
Asia-Caucasus Institute Analyst is a globally
leading periodical for analysis and information on
the region. It is published both in hard copy and
electronically. Begun in 1999, the Central
Asia-Caucasus Institute Analyst has established
itself among the world's most authoritative sources
of analysis and information on the region. The CACI
Analyst is edited by Dr. Svante Cornell. Each issue
of the CACI Analyst contains four analytical
articles, four field reports, and a news digest.
Through this format, the CACI Analyst strives to
offer original insights on developments in the
region. The analytical articles offer timely but
succinct studies of important developments, written
by some of the leading experts in the field, both
western and regional. The field reports provide
perspectives from within the region on ongoing
processes and events taking place there. Finally,
the news digests give readers reliable data on
relevant events of the last fortnight.
The analytical mission of the CACI Analyst
has been widely acclaimed by professionals in the West and in the region
itself. The target audience of the CACI Analyst is broad, including the
policy-makers in the United States and the European Union; business leaders;
representatives of the media and academia; and students. Naturally, the same
communities in the countries of the region are also part of the core
audience. The CACI Analyst is read in the presidential offices and
decision-making bodies of most Central Asian and Caucasian countries.
The China and Eurasia Forum Quarterly
is an English language Web-based journal devoted to the analysis of the
current issues facing China and Eurasia, as well as the growing relationship
between the two. The aim is to provide readers with reliable assessment of
events and trends in this important part of the world. It also serves to
link the business, governmental, journalistic and scholarly communities and
is the global voice of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute and the Silk Road
Studies Program. The journal can also be obtained in print for a fee.
The Silk Road Papers is the Center's
Occasional Papers series. Ranging from 50 to 150 pages in length, the Papers
are an avenue for the rapid publication of research in a concise and
accessible yet rigorous manner. An average of six to ten Papers are produced
yearly. The Papers are published electronically and in print.
