History of the Buddhist Studies Review

Pali Buddhist Review was produced from 1976 to 1982 (to Vol. 6, no.2) by the Pali Buddhist Union, and was edited by Russell Webb. In 1983, it was superceded by Buddhist Studies Review, of the Institut de recherche bouddhique Lin-So’n and the Pali Buddhist Union, also edited by Russell Webb, and in 1998 Buddhist Studies Review was adopted by the UK Association for Buddhist Studies as its journal. As of 2006, Buddhist Studies Review became produced commercially, on behalf of UKABS, by Equinox. The more recent editions can be found via Equinox by clicking here.
