Aims
The European University Press wants to enhance the visibility of international and especially European research results especially in comparison to American research results which are seen as dominating. For this purpose, it fosters multilinguality when introducing new publications and supports English abstracts of German and French research results. It also supports an English paper as a condensation of a non-English monograph. It encourages European scholars to submit English papers, summarizing their research and making it accessible in English. Therefore, the European University Press is better known under its English name (despite its German origin).Instruments
