Foreign Policy

Foreign Policy magazine, founded in 1970 by Harvard professor Samuel Huntington and Warren Demian Manshel, has transformed over the years while maintaining its commitment to challenging conventional wisdom in American foreign policy. Under the ownership of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the magazine evolved from a slim quarterly journal to a glossy publication with an independent viewpoint and a focus on exploring global issues rigorously. With growing complexity in global affairs, its audience expanded globally, leading to the launch of international editions in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America. Recognized for its excellence, Foreign Policy won multiple National Magazine Awards, including consecutive digital awards since the creation of ForeignPolicy.com. The acquisition by the Washington Post Co. in 2008 and later becoming a part of Graham Holdings Company solidified its position as a leader in the field, providing decision-makers in business, finance, and government with valuable insights through new media channels. As a publishing entity based in the United States, Foreign Policy continues to be a vital source of global political, economic, and intellectual discourse, staying true to its original mission while adapting to the ever-changing media landscape.
