YaleGlobal Online

YaleGlobal Online is a publication of the Yale Center for the Study of Globalization. [ [http://yaleglobal.yale.edu Homepage] ] The magazine explores implications of the growing interconnectedness of the world by drawing on the resources of the Yale University community, scholars and experts from around the world. It analyzes and promotes debate on globalization. [ [http://yaleglobal.yale.edu/about/yaleglobal/mission.jsp Mission ] ]

YaleGlobal does not regard globalization as a new phenomenon but rather a historical process that began with the first movement of people out of Africa, searching for a better life in other parts of the world. The melding, borrowing, and adaptation of outside influences can be found in virtually every area of human life - from the foods that we enjoy to the world's most pressing concerns. The magazine publishes two to three original articles each week, reprints articles that explore the many nuances of globalization and also offers multimedia presentations, book reviews and academic papers.

Articles are archived and categorized under one of eleven topics: economy, environment, gender, globalization, health, labor, politics, science and technology, security and terrorism, society and culture, and trade. Articles are also categorized by one of eight regions of the world, thus providing specific value to readers who want to follow globalization issues in their field. All articles and multimedia presentations on the site will remain archived and available for as long as technically or legally possible. Currently YaleGlobal offers translation of selected articles in Spanish, French, Chinese, Urdu, and Vietnamese.

A lightly moderated Forums. [ [https://forums.yaleglobal.yale.edu/index.jsp Forums Index] ] section allows readers to respond on articles, discuss current events and converse with one another. Other interactive features include educational sites about avian flu and flash presentations about technology and how ideas travel the world.

YaleGlobal began publishing in November 2002.
