To help its subscribers better understand international affairs, World Politics Review publishes analysis in a variety of formats:
  • Every day we publish multiple five-minute reads, including our Briefings and Columns. Our briefings are written by our global network of expert contributors, on matters of current importance. Our lineup of five columnists provide a different authoritative take on international affairs every day of the week.  
  • Every weekday in the Trend Lines section, post expert viewpoints on current events and issues, including our "Global Insider" interview series.

To help its subscribers closely follow international affairs, WPR provides:

  • A daily Media Roundup to help you track the stories that you must follow to stay informed. The Media Roundup is published at www.worldpoliticsreview.com/media-roundup and sent out by e-mail every weekday morning (U.S. Eastern time). In the daily Media Roundup, our editors link to approximately 20 news articles, and 15-20 opinion pieces from the world's English-language press each weekday.
  • A daily Leading Indicators service to alert you to emerging stories before they become mainstream news. Leading Indicators, also published at www.worldpoliticsreview.com/media-roundup and sent out by e-mail every weekday afternoon (U.S. Eastern time), links to and highlights items from the international press that our editors believe may indicate a developing trend, or important events to come.
  • A video section where we regularly post video reports by some of the world's top news outlets, including Reuters, AFP, the Associated Press, and more.
WPR also provides a variety of tools to support our subscribers’ need to conduct research and gather background information:
  • Access to our entire searchable archives is included in each subscription, and institutional subscribers also get access to the World Politics Review database on EBSCOhost.
  • WPR's Media Roundup, Leading Indicators and Video sections are all individually searchable, so subscribers can find reports on topics of interest from dozens of international news sources.
  • In our Documents Center, we aggregate documents published by government agencies and research organizations, giving you fodder for further research.

Praise for World Politics Review

"A 'pol-mil' version of The Economist. . . . WPR strikes me as a fine alternative in the growing world of online pubs."

--Thomas P.M. Barnett, bestselling author of "Great Powers: America and the World After Bush," and "The Pentagon's New Map."

 

"The internet has long needed a global news and analysis site of pure substance -- WPR is it. WPR's content is truly global, superbly organized, and always more in-depth than the competition."

--Parag Khanna, director, Global Governance Initiative, and senior research fellow, American Strategy Program, New America Foundation. Author of "The Second World: Empires and Influence in the New Global Order."

 
"World Politics Review fills an important need by allowing writers to analyze important global issues in more detail than typical newspaper commentaries but more rapidly than in traditional foreign affairs journals. Its diverse range of contributors eschew partisan propaganda but not insightful analysis.”
 
--Richard Weitz, senior fellow and director of the Center for Political-Military Analysis, the Hudson Institute; non-resident senior fellow, Center for a New American Security.
 
 

"Balanced and thoughtful analysis without an agenda. . . . [With its] cadre of talented and knowledgeable analysts, journalists and experts, WPR stands out from the Internet pack as a useful resource for scholars, students and world media consumers alike."

--RealClearWorld, which named WPR a "2009 Top 5 International News Site."

 

"WPR is an excellent product. It makes it easy to feel quickly informed and smarter about world affairs."

 

--Amy Slaughter, Mapendo International

 

 

"Wherever I am on the globe on any given day, I make sure to access World Politics Review. First I read the latest briefing, then the latest column. I scan and often read the most recent feature and report. I never miss . . . Trend Lines and Leading Indicators. WPR is a vital link in keeping me well informed, educated, and prepared in an ever-changing world. I would be lost as a global citizen without the information always presented, insightfully, succinctly, and elegantly in WPR."

--Jamsheed Choksy, professor of Central Eurasian, Indian, Iranian, Islamic, International, and Religious studies and former director of the Middle Eastern Studies     Program at Indiana University.
