Le Monde diplomatique is the place you go when you want to know what’s really happening. This is a major international paper that is truly independent, that sees the world in fresh ways, that focuses on places no other publications reach. We offer a clear, considered view of the conflicting interests and complexities of a modern global world.

We specialise in authoritative journalism whether it’s a view on US policy statements or on the unfolding dramas in Iran, Palestine or Pakistan. Le Monde diplomatique stands out in an increasingly uniform media landscape for its critical vision, in-depth analysis of world issues and reportages that illuminate the state of the planet. We find the stories that the commercial media often miss altogether (or discover we’ve been there first). Our contributors are experts in their fields – area specialists, academics, writers, journalists who are close to the issues and to the people making the news.

Le Monde diplomatique is a world-famous voice in journalism dating back to 1954 (it began as a journal to keep diplomats up to date on world events). Based in Paris, under the umbrella of the French daily newspaper Le Monde, it soon acquired an international reputation for its incisive monthly articles. In 1996 it won editorial and financial independence by forming its own company (1).
