Journal of Race Development
The
Journal of Race Development was the first American journal of international relations. It was founded in 1911 by
George Hubbard Blakeslee, a historian who taught at
Clark University. Despite a name which now suggests a journal devoted to
eugenics, the journal, in fact, dealt with a variety of topics connected with politics, foreign affairs and international relations. It was merged with
The Journal of International Relations, which in turn was merged with
Foreign Affairs in 1922.
