Foreign Policy is a magazine of global news and ideas. We explain Washington to the world and the world to Americans-and we do that by covering big trends in not only security and defense but also issues surrounding climate change, immigration, politics, culture, and more. FP is more than just a magazine: We have a research division that has been at the forefront of research on gender parity, climate, health, security, and more. Our podcast division is flourishing and includes successful shows I Spy, And Now the Hard Part, and Don't Touch Your Face. FP Events convenes top leaders from government, business, and civil society for critical, timely conversations on a wide range of topics.

FP Analytics, Foreign Policy's research and advisory division, does more than deliver in-depth research, scenario planning, and actionable intelligence on evolving policy, markets, and technology trends - it positions public and private-sector clients at the forefront of policy-shaping discussions.
