Michigan Journal of International Affairs
Global Affairs Journal at the University of Michigan
NEWEST ISSUE
We are excited to share the Winter 2024 edition of the Michigan Journal of International Affairs! “Uprooted” is the 28th volume of MJIA.
In this issue, our writers explore the new world order emerging as Western influence begins to slip in many parts of the world, highlighting Russia’s rising influence in the Sahel, backlash against decriminalization of marijuana in Thailand, and Israel’s onslaught on Gaza, among other issues. “Uprooted” explores the disruption of the customs, alliances, and hierarchies that have guided international affairs since the end of the Second World War.
MJIA was founded as a completely student-run, undergraduate publication at the University of Michigan. Each semester, the Journal publishes opinion-based pieces on international affairs in the areas of politics, history, economics, and culture. Our writers author pieces across five different regions–Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East–and are actively involved in the entire process, from editing to final distribution.
