This issue is about internationalism.
When we started New Internationalist in the 1970s, the world was in three groups: capitalist, communist, and the others. The last group was also called the Third World and for them internationalism was a way to make the world more equal. It took all sorts of forms, for example, Che Guevara travelling to Africa to help revolution and the United Nation's Committee on Trade and Development started by 77 poor countries.
That idea is in trouble now in our globalized world. In this issue of New Internationalist, we look at what we can do to build a 21st-century internationalism.
