It is published monthly by the Institute of General History of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

[1] In 1957 the Russian historian Édourd Burdzhalov was dismissed as deputy editor of the journal after he published an article about the Bolshevik's confusion following the February Revolution in 1917.
