The Economist, founded in 1843, is a global publication headquartered in London. We pride ourselves on our editorial independence and our in-depth coverage of international affairs, with correspondents stationed around the world. Our main product is a weekly magazine, but our subscribers read our coverage online and consume other types of content, including our podcasts and films.
Discussion in our editorial meetings is free and robust, and everyone is strongly encouraged to participate, from new interns to the most senior correspondents. However, it is the editor who has the final say over what runs in any of The Economist’s editorial products. The weekly edition is published in print in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Britain, Europe and the Middle East.
