About Us

COMMON WORLD is your new favorite magazine. We combine political essays, personal stories, insightful social critique, and interviews with inspiring people to curate an experience that enriches you by making you think. 

We believe that everything is political, and that political participation in the form of exchange, community-building, and challenging one’s ideas will lay the path for a hopeful future. 

In times where headlines are frightening and the media is often biased, we want to create a space for subjective storytelling that supplements the constant flow of superifical information we are exposed to with depth. We hope that you read a story in COMMON WORLD that makes you want to learn more about a country’s history, makes you want to read a book or research paper about it, and seek people to learn from. 

COMMON WORLD, therefore, is a community, a virtual collection of stories, an attempt to shape a conscious generation of leaders, and a way to expand your horizon.
