International journalism often suffers from the same flaw as all other journalism: it tells the story from the perspective of those who have the most access and the most power. The grand geopolitical narratives—of democracy versus authoritarianism, of growth and development—often obscure more than they reveal about what is actually happening on the ground.
The world is complex, contradictory, and rife with conflicts of interest that are never neatly packaged in a news broadcast. That is not an excuse to look away or avoid trying to understand it. It is the very reason why doing so is essential.
This category covers international affairs, global power structures, and the events shaping the world beyond Europe’s borders: wars, geopolitical conflicts, climate policy, international organizations, and the economic forces moving across national frontiers.
