Its 3,400 members include nearly all past and present Presidents, Secretaries of State, Defense and Treasury, other senior U.S. government officials, renowned scholars, and major leaders of business, media, human rights, and other non-governmental groups. Each year the Council sponsors several hundred meetings including televised debates and other media events, and publishes Foreign Affairs, the preeminent journal in the field, as well as dozens of other reports and books by noted experts. Since #1922, the Council has published Foreign Affairs, America's most influential publication on international affairs and foreign policy. It is more than a magazinexe2x80x94it is the international forum of choice for the most important new ideas, analysis, and debate on the most significant issues in the world. Inevitably, articles published in Foreign Affairs shape the political dialogue for months and years to come. With America more engaged in the world than ever, Foreign Affairs is performing an especially valuable service for its readers. And now educators and researchers can also benefit from Foreign Affairs through its Academic Resource Program, helping teach tomorrow's leaders and thinkers.

CJCR aims to contribute positively to the academic discourse in this field. As such, CJCR's biannual publication includes a broad range of notes, articles and commentaries from students, professors and attorneys, embracing provocative concepts within the field. In addition, CJCR hosts symposia highlighting some of the most current and provocative issues.

The journal publishes two types of articles: "Articles" and "Essays". "Essays" are extended opinion pieces on a current topic of major interest, and are succinct with a clear line of argument. "Articles" are traditional scholarly articles. The journal also publishes research notes, book reviews, review essays, notes.Alternatives features a lively exchange of views and therefore publishes critical comments and responses as well. Alternatives aims to provide a major platform for the study of non-western approahces in the discipline. Alternatives is open to any c#ontribution from different "worlds" in the context of breaking down the barriers between the worlds of academia, journalism, government and business. The journal holds the copyright of the articles published and encourages the reproduction of the articles in scholarly journals with proper credit to the journal. Although Alternatives is an on-line journal, editors have intention to publish some special issues in paper back book format.

Publications from the New Internationalist are produ#ced by an independent trust working as a not-for-profit cooperative. Originally the group was sponsored by Oxfam, Christian Aid and the Cadbury and Rowntree Trusts, but since the early 1980s sponsorship has no longer been needed. The financial independence not only allows us to decide what goes into the magazine but it gives us the freedom to say what we think about a subject - from Nuclear Energy to Banks; from Trade Justice to Terrorism. Because the New Internationalist operates as a not-for-profit, income from sales of publications and gifts goes into the production of titles and spread magazine's aims and ideals. Since 1989 the New Internationalist has won the global Independent Press Award for Best International Coverage on eight occasions. You might as well read the best!

Combining statistical approaches with an understanding of the biology of disease, epidemiologists seek to elucidate the social, environmental and host factors related to adverse health outcomes. Although research findings from epidemiologic studies abound in traditional public health journals, little publication space is devoted to discussion of the practical and theoretical concepts that underpin them. Because of its immediate impact on public health, an openly accessible forum is needed in the field of epidemiology to foster such discussion. Emerging Themes in Epidemiology welcomes submissions from all public health professionals on any subject related to epidemiology. This includes articles from related disciplines that have implications for the conduct of epidemiologic research. In# particular the journal encourages articles that introduce methodological and technological advances for the collection and analysis of epidemiological data. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: novel study designs; novel applications of statistical or mathematical frameworks; statistical methods to account for error in epidemiologic studies; molecular epidemiology, genetic epidemiology and bioinformatics; applications of new technologies in the field; ethics in epidemiological research and public health practice; causal inference and epistemology in epidemiology; historical articles and re-assessments of classic papers; introduction of relevant concepts from other disciplines into epidemiologic research frameworks. Also welcome are more discursive pieces that comment critically on epidemiologic practice and present new concepts or theoretical frameworks, whether in general or within a specific speciality. The journal will also consider comprehensive descriptions of study methods - such as those of complex trials or interventions - that require a level of detail not easily accommodated by other journals, but which have implications for future design and conduct of such studies.

It has established a forum for serious debate and exchange on one of the phenomena that had a decisive impact during the last decades of the 20th century and will continue to be of great importance in the new millennium. The journal gives a voice to established and younger researchers and analysts from academic as well as practitioner backgrounds. We publish original work of the highest quality in the field of ethnopolitics with methodological approaches covering mainly the disciplines of political science and international relations and taking primarily a contemporary, current affairs perspective. Ethnopolitics maintains a fair balance between theoretical examination and case studies both of comparative as well as singular nature, covering all geographic areas. The major focus is on the analysis, management, settlement, and prevention of ethnic conflicts, on minority rights, group identity, the intersection of identity group formations and politics, on minority and majority nationalisms in the context #of democratisation, and on the security and stability of states and regions as they are affected by any of the above issues. Particular attention is also devoted to the growing importance of international influences on ethnopolitics. Such influences include external diplomatic or military intervention, as well as the increasing impact of globalisation on ethnic identities and their political expressions. Ethnopolitics is managed by a team of four editors in the United Kingdom and the United States. The quality of each individual article and issue of the journal is ensured through the support of an editorial board consisting of some of the most prolific scholars and experienced practitioners in the field.

On more specific terms, the ISYP Journal on Science and World Affairs is a biannual, internationally peer-reviewed publication that hopes to serve as a forum for the discussion of the world problematique that embeds international affairs, from the perspective of the world's youth. This characteristic makes the journal an ideal medium for the publication of articles written by students and young professionals, who have the potential of offering innovative standpoints, both for the analysis and for the solution of the problems that our societies are confronted with. In this sense, our main priority is to constitute the journal as a high-quality periodical that is capable of offering a balanced view of the youth's positions on important, far-reaching issues - positions which often do not get an airing in mainstream academic journals.

The journal became a publication of the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, beginning with Issue 107 in 2001. Tod Lindberg, who in 1999 became editor of Policy Review, continues in that capacity, and has also been appointed research fellow at Hoover. The journal will continue to be based in Washington, D.C. xe2x80x94 expanding the Hoover Institution's presence in the nation's capital. Both Hoover Institution and the Policy Review journal aim for a free and rigorous inquiry into the American condition, into the workings of government and of our political and economic systems and those of others,# and into the role of the United States in the world. The two bring together scholars with an interest in current affairs and journalists interested in exploring the world in greater depth; they take up topics not as exercises in theory, but for the purpose of better understanding the world and the betterment of people's lives. They are committed to civil discourse, the airing of reasoned disagreement, and a vigorous and open debate. They both are diligently independent, not least in affirming and guarding the independence of those associated with them in the community of informed discussion. As the Hoover Institution has been a premier home for serious scholars, so Policy Review has been a premier vehicle for serious writers and thinkers. As an editorially independent publication of the Hoover Institution, Policy Review will both draw on the intellectual resources of the institution and bring new people into contact with it, exponentially expanding serious dialogue about politics and policy.

The journal was created out of consciousness that the many nationalities, professions and organisations involved can act as barriers to mutual understanding and awareness that sometimes, the most valuable information on shared concerns does not travel as easily between communities as within them. For this reason in 1995, originally as part of a University of Cambridge Research project, the decision was made to establish the Journal of Humanitarian Assistance as a source to which all could contribute, and from which all could benefit.

Al Nakhlah, which is Arabic for date palm, features thoughtful and informative articles and editorials by Fletcher students and alumni. Published once per semester, Al Nakhlah is sponsored by The Fletcher School's Program for Southwest Asia and Islamic Civilization (SWAIC). The journal seeks to step beyond the traditional Middle East policy approach and embrace the broader range of political, economic, and cultural aspects of the larger Southwest Asian region--a region that spans the Eastern Mediterranean, Anatolia and the Sinai Peninsula in the West, covers the Arab heartland, the Caucasus and Central Asia, and reaches as far east as Iran, Pakistan, and the Gulf Region. Al Nakhlah is the first online journal established by graduate students of international affairs that focuses on this particular region.

Another index of this interest is the generous gift by a member of the World Policy Institute's Advisory Board of a year's subscription to WPJ to a thousand opinion leaders in the United States. A third is the publication in 2002 by Yale University Press of a "World Policy Institute Book", Jihad, by Ahmed Rashid, which grew out of the respected journalist's two-part series on Central Asia in WPJ. Finally, there is the strong response to a direct mail campaign for new subscribers, made possible by a Ford Foundation grant. Founded in 1983, World Policy Journal is more than ever a highly respected and widely cited forum on international relations. Articles pertinent to America's post-September 11 role have dealt with the perils of going it alone, NATO's new role, the tentative partnership with Putin's Russia, Iran and its discontents, the threats posed by weapons of mass destruction, terrorism's money trail, and imperial America and the common interest. A grant from the Rockefeller Foundation resulted in first-hand reportage from Sri Lanka and Iran, and on the Roma of Eastern Europe. Editor Karl E. Meyer, who is completing a book on Washington's rendezvous with inner Asia, has offered incisive commentary on the transformed global scene. WPJ has streamlined its operations over the past year, moving its subscription fulfillment department to a subsidiary of its printing company. Its new in-house production software now meets industry standards. Circulation numbers are up, with a doubling of paid subscriptions and with more than twice as many copies on newsstands and in bookstores as last year. The magazine's website (www.worldpolicy.org/journal) conti#nues to attract record levels of visits, yet another measure of the keener interest in the new dangers and new opportunities America faces in the post-September 11 world.

The network currently has over 130 associates, from 36 countries, including scholars and members of international organizations and UN agencies. The initiative arose from a series of meetings held between academics and UN officials involved in the field. The major motivation stemmed from the realization that, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere, scholars tended to conduct their work in an isolated fashion, with a very meager interchange among researchers of the countries involved. Sur aims to operate as a network that will deepen and strengthen bonds between scholars concerned with the subject of human rights, magnifying their voices and participation in UN agencies, international organizations and universities. Within this framework, the network now offers a specific journal, Sur - International Journal on Human Rights, with the purpose of consolidating a channel that will publicize and promote groundbreaking research. The journal, which intends to provide a different view of the issues involved in this debate, takes as references other publications in the field, with which it attempts to establish a permanent and ongoing dialogue. Nevertheless, its singularity is a consequence of its scope, plurality and perspective. Scope. Language will often represent a major barrier for the establishment of long-lasting cooperative bonds among researchers in the several countries. Although English has become largely universal, it is not as effective as the various mother tongues of organizations and scholars to conduct discussions about complex subjects. For this reason, Sur - International Journal on Human Rights is published in three languages (English, Portuguese and Spanish), and is made fully available on the Internet, at . In this manner, it attempts to facilitate access by the largest possible number of people. Plurality. Another distinguishing feature of the journal concerns the institution responsible for its publication. Being a network, Sur can count on the collaboration of researchers from several countries, in a sustained effort to identify issues relevant to different realities, and with a consistent aim at exploring new frontiers in the human rights debate. Thus, instead of mirroring the concerns and perspectives of a closed institution, the journal opens up to a plurality of contexts and visions, which will make themselves present in each one of its issues. Perspective. With the aim of ensuring internal consistency and adopting a political and not only an academic dimension, the journal intends to privilege discussions whose main focus is centered on the countries of the South. The point here is not to wage any ideological opposition to the scientific production of the North, but rather to insert in the global debate an agenda benchmarked by the demands and priorities identified by the South in the discussion on human rights. This issue purports to present the journal to its readership and introduce some of the debates roused by the III International Colloquium on Human Rights, held in May 2003, in Sxc3xa3o Paulo, Brazil.

Such conflicts have been fought largely with small arms and light weapons (SALW). SALW have proliferated around the world to such an extent that they are easily available in many societies for a modest price. In some parts of the world, for example, an AK-47 semiautomatic rifle can been purchased for merely six dollars. Such easy availability has contributed significantly to the prolongation of many civil conflicts, where the vast majority of victims have been civilians, mainly women and children.
