<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt"><I>The Editors are pleased to introduce a new
international online linguistic journal, e-Uralic, focusing on Uralic languages.
In launching a new journal the main motivating factor was the recognition of the
need to document and distribute reliable and up-to-date research material on
Uralic languages, many of which are endangered. In order to guarantee the
publication of high quality linguistic research, all articles published in
e-Uralic will go through peer review, and they will also be open to comments
from the readers, taking full advantage of electronic publication. A third, and
equally important objective is to make the articles as widely accessible as
possible, therefore the language of the journal is English, and all articles
will be available free of charge. </I></P>
<P><I>The journal accepts research articles on any subfield of linguistics that
focus (exclusively or predominantly) on one or more languages of the Uralic
family; submission of papers on the endangered Uralic languages (that are spoken
by smaller communities and are underrepresented in linguistic research) is
especially encouraged, but studies concerning Estonian, Finnish or Hungarian are
also welcome. e-Uralic also publishes notices and reviews on monographs that
focus on Uralic languages, as well as on other linguistic monographs discussed
from the point of view of relevance to Uralic languages. For more information,
please visit the site of the journal:</I> </P>
