Dear Reader,

NYU undergraduates have heretofore been without an outlet for publication of outstanding scholarly work in the fields of political science and international relations. The Undergraduate Journal of Politics and International Affairs solicits rigorous academic work in all areas of political science. The 2007-2008 issue includes the Global Leaders Interview Series with commentary from Hezbollah Prisoners in Lebanon to Education Officials in South Africa and leaders of the U.N. Millennium Development Project. We hope you enjoy.
