International Affairs Forum

The International Affairs Forum is CIR's online journal, which publishes articles, opinion pieces and interviews. It also maintains databases of organizations, blogs and institutions active in the sphere of international relations and economic policy studies. The Forum’s stated mission is to present ‘information in an unbiased manner, regardless of political creed to provide our readers an all-encompassing view of subjects’ as well as to present ‘content from a global perspective.’[2]

Cultural Affairs Forum

The Cultural Affairs Forum is the sister site of the International Affairs Forum and covers ‘cultural diplomacy’.[3] It publishes articles, editorials and links, in this case on topics such as classical music and politics, and culture as propaganda.

gollark: Except the PinePhone, I guess, which seems pretty good generally except for the likely lack of warranty and difficulty in obtaining it here in the UK.
gollark: I'm not aware of new phones with good custom ROM support, no ridiculous notch thingy, replaceable batteries, any durability at all, and reasonably sized (~5") screens.
gollark: I mean, I could get a notverysmartphone, sure, but I like being able to use highly advanced features like a "web browser".
gollark: Er, phones now, not phone snow. I don't know what phone snow is and I hope I never have to.
gollark: Its battery seems to have degraded almost to the point of uselessness by now, and it's nonreplaceable, so I've been vaguely looking into replacements, but it turns out that there are no good phone snow.
