Abstract: Purpose: This paper aims to highlight the significance of the SEW UW - Centre of East European Studies in the context of the pivotal academic hubs for Eastern studies in the United States. The article also provides a comprehensive review of United States academic institutions with Eastern and Russian Studies. Materials and Methods: The article adopted inductive reasoning. The concept of the study was to bring a general notion that represents important aspects of the Sovietological expertise in academia, both in North America and in Central Europe. Such a research goal is intriguing and important in light of the Kremlin's ambition to restore the former empire within the borders of the Soviet Union. There are tangible changes in international law and international relations already, including contemporary rapid expansion of NATO, and highlighting the importance of accession to the Alliance in the nineties for Central European countries from the former Soviet sphere of influence. Findings: The inductive reasoning shows patterns of regularity and a broad scope of research on analyzed topics. It also demonstrates the importance of the field of study and the expertise at the University of Warsaw. Unique Contribution to theory practice and policy: The study aims to contribute to theory, practice, and policy regarding current rapid developments in international law and international relations. It is connected with the increasing threats of potential World War III1.
