Why publish with CEU Press?

We are a small team dedicated to publishing academic works that make a difference in our specialist subject areas. You will have a dedicated contact person who will work with you to ensure that your manuscript receives the highest standards of peer review, streamlined production processes, and bespoke marketing attention for your book.


Our commissioning editors are here to guide you through the first steps, whether you have a full manuscript, a detailed proposal or a doctoral thesis that needs to be converted into a monograph.

Open Access at CEU Press

We are fervent supporters of open access publishing and work with a range of OA options:

  • Green OA in institutional repositories

  • Gold OA via BPC payments from authors, institutions or funders. At CEU Press the BPC charge starts from €8950

  • Diamond OA via Knowledge Unlatched pledges, and our pioneering model Opening the Future

Speak to your commissioning editor about publishing your title in open access as early as possible!
