North South Notes is a global affairs mini-magazine. North South Notes is a Substack newsletter that pays contributors around the world for real work and original writing. North South Notes is a little blog run by Vincent Bevins. North South Notes is the future of journalism. North South Notes is our only hope.
After an appeal for support, we launched the publication in May. We would be grateful if you chose to support us as a free or paid subscriber.
For now, the plan is to send you two letters a month, maximum. We usually publish one piece from the editor (North), then one report from far away (usually South). Even if you do not pay much attention to Kenya, or Chile, or Egypt, we invest the resources in reporting and editing to make every dispatch worth your time. It could be the one long thing you read this year about Bahrain, or Romania, or Korea.
The focus is the global system. We take accuracy and investigation very seriously, and seek to uphold the standards of the best of the old world of serious journalism, in a very new context. More information about our plans and promises is here, in somewhat rambling form.
North South Notes has no plans to spam your inbox or simply rearrange the words already on the internet. North South Notes will send you heartfelt correspondence from the periphery and the imperial core. North / South Notes.
North South Notes thanks you for your time, and for your support.
