JOURNAL AND REVIEW

The International Third World Studies Journal and Review is an annual interdisciplinary journal of scholarship in the field of Third World studies. Articles and book reviews range from analysis of Third World economics and politics to scholarly examination of Third World culture, media, education, literature, health issues, and philosophy. Since its first publication in 1989, ITWSJ&R has kept scholars and researchers informed about important issues concerning developing nations, issues which commonly go unnoticed in other journals.
