IECOB and the Europe and the Balkans network: an independent guide
The Istituto per l'Europa Centro-Orientale e Balcanica (IECOB) was founded in Bologna in December 1995 by scholars of the Europe and the Balkans International Network, and based at the University of Bologna's Forlì campus. For two decades it ran summer schools, research projects, publication series and the PECOB portal on Central-Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the post-Soviet space. This independent guide documents that work.
