Australian Journal of International Affairs The Australian Journal of International Affairs is a peer-reviewed scholarly periodical associated with the Australian Institute of International Affairs and published by Taylor & Francis, addressing contemporary debates in international relations, diplomacy, and foreign policy across the Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Americas, and beyond. It publishes articles engaging with global governance, security studies, trade and development, and transnational issues, attracting contributions from scholars linked to institutions such as the Lowy Institute, the Australian National University, the London School of Economics, Harvard University, and the Brookings Institution.
The journal was established in 1947 amid post-World War II reconstruction and the founding of institutions like the United Nations, the Bretton Woods system, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, reflecting Australian engagement with global affairs and regional arrangements such as the ANZUS Treaty, the Colombo Plan, and the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization. Over decades the publication has intersected with scholarly debates prompted by events including the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the end of the Cold War, the Gulf War, the 9/11 attacks, the rise of the People’s Republic of China, and debates over the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Editors and contributors have included academics and practitioners connected to universities and institutions such as the University of Sydney, the University of Melbourne, the Australian National University, Monash University, Flinders University, the Parliament of Australia, the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, the Department of Defence, the United Nations University, and the International Crisis Group.
The journal covers international relations theory and practice, comparative diplomacy, security and strategic studies, international political economy, regionalism in the Asia-Pacific, and transnational issues such as climate change, migration, and cyber security, engaging with scholarship from centres like the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, the Council on Foreign Relations, Chatham House, and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. It publishes work that dialogues with canonical and contemporary debates referencing theorists and events tied to names such as Hans Morgenthau, Kenneth Waltz, Alexander Wendt, John Mearsheimer, Robert Keohane, Joseph Nye, Hedley Bull, Barry Buzan, and writers from journals like Foreign Affairs, International Organization, International Security, and the Journal of Conflict Resolution.
The editorial board comprises scholars and practitioners drawn from institutions including the Australian Institute of International Affairs, universities such as the University of Queensland, the University of New South Wales, Columbia University, Stanford University, and think tanks including the RAND Corporation and the Peterson Institute for International Economics. The journal employs double-blind peer review with external referees recruited from networks spanning the International Studies Association, the European International Studies Association, the American Political Science Association, and professional associations linked to diplomats from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, ambassadors accredited to Canberra, and researchers at the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
Published quarterly by Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Australian Institute of International Affairs, the journal is available in print and online and distributed to subscribers including university libraries such as the National Library of Australia, the Bodleian Library, the Library of Congress, and research libraries at the University of Oxford, Yale University, and Peking University. Issues often feature peer-reviewed articles, review essays, book reviews engaging works from publishers such as Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press, Routledge, and Princeton University Press, and symposia addressing topical developments such as the Australia–United States alliance, AUKUS, ASEAN summits, the G20, the World Trade Organization, and UN climate conferences.
The journal is indexed and abstracted in major bibliographic services and databases including Scopus, the Web of Science Emerging Sources Citation Index, ProQuest, EBSCOhost, and Informit, and is listed in library catalogs and citation services used by scholars at institutions like the Australian National University, the University of California system, the National University of Singapore, the London School of Economics, and the Sorbonne.
The journal is regarded within Australasian and international scholarly communities for contributing to debates on regional security, alliance politics, trade negotiations, and normative questions such as human rights and humanitarian intervention, and it is cited in policy reports produced by organisations including the Lowy Institute, the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, the International Crisis Group, the World Bank, and the United Nations Development Programme. Academics from the University of Chicago, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Toronto, the University of British Columbia, and the University of Cape Town have engaged with its articles in teaching, research, and policy advisory roles, while media outlets such as The Australian, The Guardian, The New York Times, and the BBC have drawn on its scholarship in commentary on Australian foreign policy.

Special issues have brought together contributors associated with think tanks and universities including the Hudson Institute, the Asia Society, Griffith University, Deakin University, the University of Warwick, and the National Bureau of Economic Research, producing work cited alongside monographs and reports by authors linked to Nobel laureates, leading historians, and senior diplomats from Canberra, Washington D.C., Beijing, Tokyo, and New Delhi.
