Controversy
A 2026 report by the Progressive Policy Institute called the journal's scholarship "unrelentingly negative", stating that 80 percent of articles between 2022 and 2024 were critical of the United States, while the remaining papers were neutral. In response, editor Jason Ruiz said that the journal's mission was not "national boosterism."[3][4]
