The Yale Journal of International Affairs publishes the
work of graduate students, professors, and practitioners within the
policy community. YJIA strives to facilitate discussion of international
affairs as a platform for scholarship and commentary. The views expressed
in this journal do not necessarily represent those of the editorial
board, board of advisors, or Yale University.
As Yale's only undergraduate international affairs magazine, the Yale Globalist is written, edited, and produced by Yale students. Four issues are released each year, two in the fall semester and two
in the spring semester. Each issue is comprised of theme articles
focusing on a topic voted by the staff to be of great contemporary
importance, and off-theme articles covering a range of international
issues. Past themes have included the Education System in China, Energy
as a means of Politics, the American Military Abroad, and the Rise
of the Left in Latin America.
Each year, The Yale Globalist conducts an international research
trip during the month of May in order to produce the October issue
of the following year. Previous destinations include France, Germany,
and China; in 2006, the Globalist will travel to Poland, Lithuania
and Belarus.
In addition to producing a quarterly publication, The Yale Globalist
is host to many exciting events on campus. In the 2005-06 year, this
has included an International Photo Contest, Interviews with the World
Fellows Program, an Editing Workshop with the London Bureau Editor
of Time Magazine, The Yale Globalist International Journalist of the
Year Award, and a conference on "The Role of Journalism in International
Justice," in which journalists from seven post-conflict countries
were represented.
In 2005, The Globalist Foundation was founded to spread The Yale
Globalist model, forming a network of international publications at
top Universities across the world. Over the past year, Globalist chapters
have been established in such countries as Canada, Australia, England,
South Africa, Israel, and China.

Published semiannually, The Politic features articles and commentary
from students, professors, and prominent national politicians. The Politic
is able to empower students by providing them access to the experience
and insights of some of the most prominent political leaders and thinkers
of our time.
Inspired by the need for undergraduates’ participation
in debates about the 2000 Presidential election, several Yale
College students inaugurated The Politic in spring 2001 as a means
to keep the greater Yale community informed about the most important
local, national, and global events in the political world. Building
upon the rich political heritage of Yale University, The Politic strives
to promote greater understanding and cooperation between the academic
world and the world of politics.
This publication was made possible through support by The MacMillan Center and the Yale Institution for Social and
Policy Studies, as well as by the Castle Publications Fund. John K.
Castle endowed the Fund in memory of his ancestor, James Pierpont. It
is intended to promote discipline reflection on ethical issues facing
individuals in our complex modern society.
