About this Journal
New Global Studies is one of the few journals that approaches contemporary globalization as a whole, and across disciplinary lines. It draws from history, sociology, anthropology, political science, and international relations to study the past and present of today's globalizing process. Topics include the patterns and local effects of economic globalization, global media networks, preservation of the global environment, transnational manifestations of culture, and the methodology of global studies itself. New Global Studies is an essential resource: a single journal for those who are interested in global affairs and the contemporary history of globalization, both broadly and in depth. Editors Nayan Chanda (Yale), Akira Iriye (Harvard), and Bruce Mazlish (MIT) are prominent leaders in the field of global history; editorial board members come from major institutions in Europe, Asia and the Americas.

What scholars are saying about New Global Studies
New Global Studies may well emerge as the most important periodical in global studies available, and one of the few that combines historical depth with real insights on contemporary issues.
Michael Adas, Abraham E. Voorhees Professor of History and Board of Governors' Chair, Rutgers University
This looks to be a very innovative and important new journal that is interdisciplinary in nature and focuses on ideas and issues of enduring significance.
John Fousek, Program Director, The Center for Ethics at Yeshiva University
This journal offers an innovative and fresh perspective on the nexus between economics, public policy and government institutions. It would prove very useful for faculty in my program (which is interdisciplinary) as well as faculty in other fields throughout the social sciences and humanities. This would be especially helpful for incoming junior faculty seeking to bolster their publications and research through access to cutting edge discourse.
Jill Tao, Associate Professor, University of Hawaii at Manoa
