Carleton Review of International Affairs: Volume 1, 2009

The Carleton United Nations Society and the International Policy Forum are pleased to announce the release of Volume 1, 2009 of the Carleton Review of International Affairs (CRIA). This inaugural issue showcases five exceptional papers by undergraduate students at Carleton University on a wide variety of issues of global importance, ranging from international human rights law to sustainable development in Madagascar. An electronic copy of the publication is available here for download.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the innumerable people who helped us bring the CRIA to life. First, we wish to acknowledge Dr. James Milner, whose guidance helped us develop the peer review mechanism and for whose general advice we cannot be appreciative enough. We would also like to thank our many peer reviewers for both their diligence and commitment to the project. Emily Villeneuve is another person who has earned our gratitude for helping to coordinate the peer reviewer process and providing an impartial judge when the time came to select this year’s best essays. For their kind words of introduction that open the CRIA, we are indebted to Dr. Roseann O’Reilly Runte and Dr. Randall Germain. Lastly, to the authors of the essays contained within the CRIA, we say thank you for your patience, your determinism and your tenacity. Indeed, without you, this project would have been for naught.
