The series CIES e-Working Papers (e-WP), started in 2005, has as its main objective the publication of scientific work in electronic format which result from the research developed both by CIES-Iscte researchers, by researchers who collaborate with the members or activities of the Centre and by Iscte students.

The CIES e-WP have a "work in progress" character and can be theoretical or conceptual texts, both methodological and empirical. They are also a suitable medium for disseminating the results of undergraduate or master's work. The texts proposed for publication are evaluated by the Editorial Council and subject to peer review, so as to assure the quality and scientific relevance standards of the work produced in the centre.

These publications have an international scope and are available in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, or Italian. Each has an ISSN and can be found in the Iscte repository.
