The World Today has paused publication to consider changes to the magazine. Please bear in mind that whilst your subscription will give you access to the archive, there will be no new issues until publication is resumed later this year.

The World Today, founded in 1945, has now been published monthly for over sixty years. Throughout this period it has offered the best and brightest insights on current affairs — from the fallout of the Second World War, through the Cold War, into the information age and the ‘war’ on terror.

In an increasingly unpredictable world, The World Today presents authoritative analysis from Chatham House on a variety of current topics. It provides vital background for experts, business planners, academics and those curious about the world we live in.

The World Today goes to subscribers in more than eighty different countries; in governments, business, the media, schools and universities. Many hundreds of libraries also find it essential.

Latest issue
Welcome to the autumn edition of The World Today. First, I want to thank you for your patience while we paused publication of Chatham House’s member magazine. In those months, new editor Mike Higgins and his team have been busy conducting a reader survey and updating the magazine.
What’s new? The World Today has a refreshed, elegant design, more pages and will be published quarterly – expect subsequent editions in December, March and June. You’ll also notice several innovations, including clearer information about related Chatham House events, articles, research publications and podcasts for you to explore at www.chathamhouse.org. Otherwise, the magazine is much as you remember it – authorities and experts from Chatham House and beyond setting the agenda on the big international affairs questions of our time.
To mention a few of the highlights in this edition: Michael Cox assesses what a second presidential term for Donald Trump might mean for the world (disruption, in a word); Richard Haass welcomes the impact Kamala Harris has had on the race for the White House and warns against a more inward-looking America; as Britain looks to reset its foreign policy, Samir Puri urges the new government to repair relations in the Global South with historical sensitivity and diplomatic generosity; Anne Applebaum highlights how the world’s autocrats are better organized than ever. All this and more.
If you happen not to be a Chatham House member and like what you see, why not take advantage of the membership offer on page 52? Either way, we hope you enjoy the new magazine – please let us know what you think by writing to contact@theworldtoday.org.
Bronwen Maddox, director and chief executive officer, Chatham House
