Harvard Political Review

Harvard Political Review

A quarterly, nonpartisan journal of political and international affairs published by the Harvard Institute of Politics at the John F. Kennedy School of Government. [ [http://www.iop.harvard.edu/Programs/Harvard-Political-Review Harvard University Institute of Politics - Harvard Political Review ] ] The magazine was founded in 1969 by a group of undergraduates including former Vice President Albert Gore, Jr. Today it is written, edited, and managed entirely by students at Harvard College. The current Editor-in-Chief is Becca Friedman.

The magazine has international circulation, and is often cited in other print, online, and television journalism.

In addition to interviews, political book and art reviews, and domestic and world coverage, each issue focuses a number of articles on a single broad cover topic.

The magazine has a long and colorful history on campus, arising during the student protests of the late 1960s, and witnessing several leadership and format changes in its first several years.
