The peer-reviewed Journal of Social Sciences "EAST-WEST STUDIES" has been published since 2007 by Tallinn University Law School (up to 2010 former University Nord) and since 2015 by Tallinn University School of Governance, Law and Society. From 2015 onwards there is double-blind peer-review process for accepting the submissions. The journal is open for submission for scholars from around the world, the international editorial board consists of Estonian and foreign academics.

The aim of the journal is to bring together specialists on various social studies such as philosophy, law, psychology, economy, international relations and also other social sciences, whose interests transcend a geographic region. Estonia is an European country and a member of the European Union and other European institutions as well as one of the easternmost members of these bodies. East-West Studies publishes articles not only on Estonian and European but also global issues, including East-West relations and problems. The journal offers original explanations and solutions to theoretical, methodological as well as practical problems; contributing to better understanding of challenges facing humankind.
