Foreign Affairs essay contest

The June 1st deadline for the Foreign Affairs inaugural student writing contest is quickly approaching. We hope that all of your students will take advantage of this unique opportunity. The contest is open to undergraduate and all equivalent first degree students across the globe. Qualifying essays must answer the following question in English,

“What is likely to be the most interesting development in international politics over the next decade?”

A panel from the Foreign Affairs editorial staff will select one student’s essay to be published on the Foreign Affairs Web site. In addition, the winner will receive a prize of $500. Five honorable mentions will receive a free year-long subscription to Foreign Affairs magazine.

Please help spread the word by forwarding this email to your colleagues, students, and list-serves. To read more about the contest requirements and find out how students can enter, visit ForeignAffairs.com/StudentEssay.
