5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking read!, July 21, 2006

This review is from: National Interest (Magazine)

This magazine is ideal reading for anyone who demands a broad perspective and deep analysis about any current topics related to international foreign policy. Years ago, I subscribed to the magazine and now, as an International Relations grad student, I use articles in The National Interest to address my areas of concentration. The pieces are useful to me because they are so in-depth. I appreciate the pragmatic approach of the writers as well as the wealth of information the editors ensure are featured in each issue. I particularly like the Reporter-at-Large feature and the recent "Conversation with Henry Kissinger" segment.

Top-level experts on foreign policy like diplomats and intelligence officers, well-known policy-makers, and prestigious journalists make The National Interest an exciting read. The broad and varied views enhance my studies. I like the magazine because the centrist perspectives distinguish this magazine from the many others I read like The Economist, Foreign Affairs and Foreign Policy. I find that every article offers level-headed reasoning; no sound bites, no bumper-sticker clichés. The articles offer conclusions that allow me to develop my own informed opinions.

For anyone who wants to be up to date about foreign policy, and who wants to develop well-documented opinions from those who have been on the "front lines" of world affairs, this is the magazine I recommend without reservation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The National Interest, January 13, 2010

This review is from: National Interest (Magazine)

I read many opinion and long-form magazines, but this one is my favorite. Found the National Interest to be a balanced and informative primer on all things international affairs. Articles and book reviews are from top academics, journalists, writers or ex-government officials, and tackle economics, defense policy, intelligence, diplomacy and cultural issues. Is edgier and much more entertaining to read than Foreign Affairs, which seems somewhat staid and boring by comparison. Also quite good at presaging what foreign-policy items will be in the news cycle in the near future. Partisanship is not a problem here--thinkers from the Left and Right are given their say, occasionally in the same issue. Essential reading for anyone who wants to understand and be a part of the discussion on U.S. foreign policy.
