The Economist was first published in 1843 to campaign on one of the great political issues of the day and still strongly believes in free trade, internationalism and small government. Today’s uncertain political and economic climate, together with a growing appetite for understanding, has contributed to renewed demand for The Economist. For increasing numbers of loyal readers, The Economist offers the opportunity to fuel their own thinking; challenge their opinions on events; and satisfy their curiosity about the world.

The Economist covers pretty much everything under the sun (and, if you include the Science section, some things well beyond it). Written with clarity and wit, it is the essence of good journalism: informative, stimulating and free from political bias.

Famously, articles in The Economist are not signed due to a belief that what it written is more important than who writes it. As Geoffrey Crowther (editor 1938-1956) put it, anonymity keeps the editor “not the master but the servant of something far greater than himself”. This single-minded pursuit of reason is still a guiding principle today. In 2010, as record sales were announced in the UK, The Economist’s John Micklethwait won the coveted Editor’s Editor of the Year prize at the British Society of Magazine Editors annual awards.
