EDITORIAL BOARD

The American Hellenic Institute Foundation debuted the Online Policy Journal in July 2009. The purpose of the Journal is to offer a forum for our readers, including members of Congress and other government officials, by which they can examine issues concerning the United States, Greece, Cyprus and Turkey in a format that is more comprehensive and detailed than many of our traditional press releases and letters. In 2019 we renamed the annual journal as the AHIF American Journal of Contemporary Hellenic Issues. Each issue contains scholarly articles, essays, briefing papers on policy issues, and book reviews.

Our goal is to provide a forum to promote the exchange of ideas and encourage a dialogue on United States relations with Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, Southeastern Europe and the Middle East.
