European Bulletin of Himalayan Research

The European Bulletin of Himalayan Research (EBHR) was founded by the late Richard Burghart in 1991 and has appeared twice yearly ever since. It is edited on a rotating basis between France (CNRS), Germany (South Asia Institute) and the United Kingdom (SOAS). From January 2006 until 2010, the French editorship has been run as a collective, presently including Pascale Dollfus, András Höfer, Marie Lecomte-Tilouine, Boyd Michailovsky, Philippe Ramirez, Blandine Ripert and Anne de Sales. The editorship has now returned to SOAS in London, where Michael Hutt is currently assembling a new UK-based editorial team (to be announced in due course), assisted by Mark Turin who is coordinating the book reviews.

The Himalayas are taken to include the Karakorum, Hindukush, Ladakh, southern Tibet, Kashmir, north-west India, Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan, and north-east India. The subjects covered by the journal range from geography and economics to anthropology, sociology, philology, history, art history, and history of religions. In addition to scholarly articles, EBHR publishes book reviews, reports on research projects, information on Himalayan archives, news of forthcoming conferences, and funding opportunities. Manuscripts submitted are subject to a process of strict peer-reviewing.

Digital Himalaya is delighted to host the back issues of EBHR and will soon become the permanent online digital home for the journal.
