The Center for Civil Society International (CCSI), in cooperation
with the National Council on Economic Education (NCEE in New
York), is pleased to announce the publication of "Internet Re-
sources for Economic Educators" by Richard Upjohn and Holt Ruf-
fin, both of CCSI. The publication is available in English and
Russian.
The publication is an annotated guide to internet sites and
electronic mailing lists selected especially for purposes of
economic education in post-Soviet societies. Western and Eurasian
economic educations will find much of value in the publication.
The resources included in the guide are excellent supplements to
classroom instruction, and will bring the online world alive for
any educational institution with access to the internet. Most of
the sites and resources described in the 83-page publication are
in English, but twelve pages describe exceptional Russian and
Ukrainian sites. Ordering information for the English version is
