The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace is pleased to announce the sale of its award-winning magazine, Foreign Policy, to The Washington Post Company.
WASHINGTON, Sept 29—The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace is pleased to announce the sale of its award-winning magazine, Foreign Policy, to The Washington Post Company.
Announcing the move, Jessica T. Mathews, president of the Endowment said:
“Since its founding in 1910 the Carnegie Endowment has made a tradition of recognizing when its initiatives reach a point where they need new circumstances to continue to grow. A good example is the departure of the Endowment’s migration program in 2001. The program had grown so large that it needed to stand on its own. As the independent Migration Policy Institute (MPI), it has since become an internationally known success.
The same has become true of Foreign Policy magazine. Ten years ago we set out to turn a good professional journal into a new kind of magazine for a much wider circle of readers. Under Moises Naím’s inspired direction, we have done so with numerous awards for editorial excellence, an expanding readership and many international editions. Now Foreign Policy, too, needs a wider horizon that only a commercial publisher can provide.
“We are extremely proud that the magazine’s achievements and great future potential have been recognized by The Washington Post Company. In terms of brand, editorial values and business strengths it is simply impossible to imagine a better home for Foreign Policy.”
Moises Naím, Foreign Policy’s editor-in-chief said:
“FP would have not grown into the successful operation it is today without the unwavering support of the Carnegie Endowment. It is indeed bittersweet to part with such a generous and prestigious organization. But with the backing of The Washington Post Company, FP will be even better placed to deliver and grow the unique coverage and analysis of the ideas and issues shaping our world for which the magazine has become well known".

Amid increased polarization and the influence of disinformation, radical-right parties are once again gaining traction across Europe. With landmark elections on the horizon in several countries, are the EU’s geostrategic vision and fundamental values under existential threat?

The war in Iran proves the United States is now a destabilizing actor for Europe and the Arab Gulf. From protect their economies and energy supplies to safeguarding their territorial integrity, both regions have much to gain from forming a new kind of partnership together.

French President Emmanuel Macron has unveiled his country’s new nuclear doctrine. Are the changes he has made enough to reassure France’s European partners in the current geopolitical context?

The drone strike on the British air base in Akrotiri brings Europe’s proximity to the conflict in Iran into sharp relief. In the fog of war, old tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean risk being reignited, and regional stakeholders must avoid escalation.

European reactions to the war in Iran have lost sight of wider political dynamics. The EU must position itself for the next phase of the crisis without giving up on its principles.
