12-15-2004 This official journal of the Nordic International Studies Association is the only English-language journal devoted to international relations from a Scandinavian perspective. The theoretical articles and empirical research reports focus on "foreign policy, the Nordic countries in world affairs, international relations as process, European cooperation and conflict, the role of big and small powers in the new global context, and the role of the Baltic states in Europe." The editorial board and article authors include Nordic scholars and international Nordic specialists. Essential reading for scholars interested in international relations and northern Europe.
