Founded in 2004 as the Wilson Journal of International Affairs, the Journal’s name was changed in Fall 2020 to reflect the organization’s support for confronting past and present systemic racism. VJIA produced one journal yearly in the beginning, but expanded to produce one per semester in 2014. The Journal expanded to include the writing and publication of Op-Ed pieces in 2020.
It is distributed in partnership with the student-run International Relations Organization (IRO). Read more about IRO →
