E-Journals

The State Department publishes four series of electronic journals with a new journal in one of the series appearing every month.

1. American Life

• Indigenous People (PDF - 2.83 MB): Articles provide historical background and look at issues surrounding their languages and culture, their legal status, and how they are networking around the world.
• Multicultural Literature in the United States Today (PDF - 1.14 MB): This edition of eJournal USA focuses on distinguished American writers from various ethnic backgrounds who add immeasurably to mutual understanding and appreciation through tales of their native lands and their experiences as Americans.

2. Economy

• The Global Financial System (PDF - 1.01 MB): Experts describe the mechanics of the global financial system presenting their views concerning the cyclical nature of markets, the interdependence of global trade relationships, and the role of regulation.
• Venture Capital Meets High-Tech (PDF - 5.45 MB): This eJournal explores the phenomenon that drives uncounted Americans — and now citizens of other nations — to create fledgling “start-up” businesses that explore and exploit the latest developments in high technology. It also investigates the closely related “venture capital” phenomenon. How investors match their funds to (hopefully) winning ideas is a big part of the start-up story.

3. Global Challenges

• Energy Efficiency: The First Fuel (PDF - 3.04 MB): Examines the strong U.S. record of tapping efficiency as a resource, and the accelerated efforts by individuals, organizations, and governments to squeeze greater productivity from all energy sources.
• Nonviolent Paths to Social Change (PDF - 783 KB): The past 30 years have seen a surge of nonviolent, “people power” movements around the world advancing human rights and toppling repressive rulers. This edition of eJournal USA demonstrates that nonviolent actions can be more powerful than armed insurrections in bringing about social change.

4. International Relations

• Countering the Terrorist Mentality (PDF - 4 MB): provides a look at the complex, global problem of terrorism. Several of the world’s leading scholars in this field, including Walter Laqueur, Bruce Hoffman, Jerrold Post, David Kilcullen, Mohammed Hafez, and Mia Bloom, examine the motivations of those who carry out terrorist attacks and the techniques terrorist organizations like al-Qaida use to recruit and motivate them.
• Significant Events in U.S. Foreign Relations (PDF - 2.34 MB): offers a framework for examining how U.S. foreign relations have evolved over the past century, influenced by the legacy of America's founding ideals of protecting individual rights and freedom. The Editors recognize that any selection of "major events" will ultimately be arbitrary, but it is our hope that those in this journal will provide insight into the American character and stimulate dialogue among international audiences.
