《當代歐洲研究期刊》(JCES)是一份多學科的期刊，旨在對歐洲社會、政治和文化進行實證研究，致力于鼓勵和促進關于這些主題的辯論。該雜志的中心領域是歐洲，其最廣泛的地理定義和文章歡迎跨國家和單一國家的歐洲研究專家。jc本身有別于其他歐洲研究期刊,它不是歐盟集中——它的焦點和利益超越歐盟,它還提供了一個論壇討論的區域研究的理論和實踐優勢,范圍和跨領域的局限性。此外，《華爾街日報》還從非歐洲視角進行了補充。

Journal of Contemporary European Studies (JCES) is a multidisciplinary journal for the empirical study of European societies, politics and cultures and is committed to the encouragement and promotion of debate on these topics. The central area focus of the journal is European in its broadest geographical definition and articles are welcomed from both cross-national and single-country specialists in European studies. The JCES differentiates itself from other European Studies journals in that it is not EU focused - its focus and interests extend beyond the EU - and in that it also provides a forum for debate about the theory and practice of ‘area studies’ and the advantages, scope and limitations of interdisciplinarity. Furthermore, the Journal is enhanced by non-European perspectives.
