ABOUT FP
Founded in 1970 by Samuel Huntington and Warren Demian Manshel, and now
published by the Slate Group, a division of Washingtonpost.Newsweek
Interactive, LLC, in Washington, D.C., FOREIGN POLICY is the premier,
award-winning magazine of global politics, economics, and ideas. Our
mission is to explain how the world works-in particular, how the process
of globalization is reshaping nations, institutions, cultures, and,
more fundamentally, our daily lives. FP is a 2010, 2006, and 2005
nominee and a 2009, 2007, and 2003 winner of the National Magazine Award
for General Excellence. The magazine's readers include some of the most
influential leaders in business, government, and other professional
arenas throughout the U.S. and more than 160 other countries.
In January 2009, ForeignPolicy.com was
relaunched as a vibrant, daily online magazine. Rather than merely
complementing the print edition, the site stands on its own as one of
the Web's premier destinations for international news and opinion. FP has
recruited some of the sharpest writers in international politics to
look beyond the day's headlines to uncover overlooked stories and unique
angles. Passport, the award-winning blog by FP's editors, has been joined by a host of new bloggers, including Tom Ricks, Stephen Walt, Marc Lynch, and Daniel Drezner
