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. New Global Studies is currently under review for the Thomson/ISI Social Science Citation Index.
