Germany and all things German have long been the primary concern ofCentral European History(CEH), yet the journal has also been intimately tied to the lands of the former Habsburg monarchy. As the editor stated in the first issue, published in March 1968,CEHemerged "in response to a widespread demand for an American journal devoted to the history of German-speaking Central Europe," following the demise of theJournal of Central European Affairsin 1964. The Conference Group for Central European History sponsoredCEH, as well as the recently mintedAustrian History Yearbook(AHY). Robert A. Kann, the editor ofAHY, sat on the editorial board ofCEH, whose second issue featured a trenchant review by István Deák of Arthur J. May'sThe Passing of the Habsburg Monarchy, 1914–1918. The third issue contained the articles "The Defeat of Austria-Hungary in 1918 and the Balance of Power" by Kann, and Gerhard Weinberg's "The Defeat of Germany in 1918 and the Balance of Power." That same year,East European Quarterlypublished its first issue.
