Gideon Rose Named Editor of “Foreign Affairs”

NEW YORK: Gideon Rose, managing editor of Foreign Affairs  for a decade, will become editor of the magazine October 1. He will succeed James F. Hoge Jr., who after 18 years is stepping down to pursue new opportunities in communications and international affairs.

Rose said, “Thanks to Jim Hoge’s leadership, Foreign Affairs is now read and respected more widely than ever before.” Before joining Foreign Affairs, Rose taught U.S. foreign policy at Princeton and Columbia Universities and served on the staffs of the National Security Council and the Council on Foreign Relations, which publishes the magazine. His book on how American wars end will be published in October by Simon & Schuster.
