AJIR is a peer-reviewed and student-run journal that is dedicated to publishing incisive theoretical and critical academic research on international affairs. Its first of its kind in the country and hopes to highlight conversations about aspects of IR that are not always prominent. While we aim to publish novel and analytically rich academic work from the discipline, we also believe that a multidisciplinary approach is integral to making sense of the larger world around us and to broaden our understanding of what international politics entails.
