Transliterations: Demokratizatsiya employs the following journalistic
transliteration style for the Russian language:
When the Russian letter E appears as the first letter in a word,
in most cases it will be transliterated as Ye: Yeltsin, Yekaterinburg,
Yedinstvo, Yegor.
Russian proper names
that end in  should be y, rather than iy or ii: Valery,
Yevgeny, Dmitry. Exception: Yuri. Those ending in  remain as oi, ei, ai.
Use Russian political divisions
by name whenever possible, such as oblast, krai, okrug, uyezd, obkom, etc.,
instead of region, administrative region, district, etc.
Acronyms must be
spelled out the first time they are used and, with few exceptions such as
CPSU, must be written in the original language. Example: Military-Industrial
Complex (VPK), Lithuanian Communist Party (LKP), Communist Party of Russia
(KPRF).
The first time a person's name appears in an article, please include first
name, even though in
Russia it is not customary. First names and the names of publishers should also be used in endnotes.
All correspondence regarding
editorial matters should be addressed to:
