MJIP Compass is the public-facing platform of the MEF Journal of International Politics (MJIP). Launched in the 2025–26 academic year, Compass brings international politics, economics, and global affairs to a broader audience clearly, concisely, and without academic jargon.
While MJIP publishes original peer-reviewed research, MJIP Compass explains the world: what is happening, why it matters, and how we got here.
MJIP Compass publishes short-form content across four categories:
Explainer
Clear breakdowns of key concepts and terms in international politics
In Focus
Analysis of current events and global developments
Reading Room
Reviews of academic books and major reports
Then & Now
Historical events and their relevance today
MJIP Compass content is produced primarily by the MJIP editorial team and selected contributors. All pieces undergo editorial review to ensure accuracy, clarity, and accessibility. Unlike MJIP's formal peer-review process, Compass operates on a flexible, event-driven publication schedule.
