Middle East International was a bimonthly magazine published in London from 1971 until 2005, reaching a total of 761 issues.[1][2][3][4] It was established by Christopher Mayhew and a group of senior British politicians and diplomats. The original publisher was Claud Morris, a newspaper magnate, who withdrew after a boycott by advertisers and an arson attack on his printing works.[5][6] Mayhew was to remain the director until his death in 1997. It has been described as having been "one of the best-informed journals of current Middle East affairs".[7]
Its aim was to "provide intelligent, authoritative, and independent news and analysis on the Middle East".[8]
