From Wikipedia: "The Georgetown Journal of International Affairs is a semi-annual foreign policy magazine published by the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. The magazine takes a holistic approach to international relations, giving voice to leading academics, policymakers, and analysts. As such, the journal publishes articles from a wide range of international and interdisciplinary perspectives...Founded in 1998, the journal published its first issue in 2000. Since then, it has grown considerably and can now be found in over 300 outlets throughout the United States and is internationally distributed in over 18 countries ] Its readership includes prominent international affairs professionals, think tanks, embassies, and university libraries. Additionally, the Journal is indexed in major academic hosting services, such as Columbia International Affairs Online, ProQuest, Hein Online, Thomson Gale, and the Public Affairs Information Service. The articles are regularly excerpted by the Chronicle of Higher Education and PricewaterhouseCoopers Executive Digest and frequently used in educational institutions across the United States, including Georgetown, Harvard, Princeton, and the National Defense University. Each of the magazine s ten sections focuses on a specific area of international affairs. The first, Forum, analyzes a particular topic in depth. In the past, these topics have included urbanization, espionage, and indigenous movements. The following sections are called Business and Economics, Conflict and Security, Culture and Society, Law and Ethics, Politics and Diplomacy, Science and Technology, and Books. The eighth section, View from the Ground, gives Georgetown students the opportunity to connect their experiences abroad to wider themes in international affairs. The final section, A Look Back, recounts an interview with a prominent public figure. In summer 2011, the Journal announced that it will be publishing one article per cycle from a graduate student or PhD candidate. Graduate students from around the world can submit their articles to one of the eight sections." Condition: Good. Cover has some wear and soiling.
