Azerbaijan International
''Azerbaijan International'' is a magazine that discusses issues related to Azerbaijanis around the world. It was established in 1993 shortly after the dissolution of the Soviet Union when Azerbaijan gained its independence. Since then, it has been published quarterly in English with occasional articles in the Azerbaijani language in Latin and Arabic scripts. The magazine has offices in Los Angeles and Baku. It was funded at the outset in large part by a grant from ConocoPhillips, and as a result has been criticized as presenting a pro-regime perspective.
Each issue includes about 100-colored pages and relates to a specific theme. Past themes have included art, music, literature, folklore, architecture, archeology, health, environment, international relations, business, trends and transitions. Its target audience is international readers in the business, diplomatic and academic communities.
Ulrichsweb,〔 the standard directory of periodicals, does not indicate that ''Azerbaijan International'' is peer reviewed.

Several editions have been particularly noteworthy in the history of the magazine. These include research about the discovery and decipherment of the Caucasian Albanian (Old Udi alphabet) in Mount Sinai, Egypt, by Dr. Zaza Aleksidze,〔(Dr. Zaza Aleksidze - "Caucasian Albanian Alphabet - Ancient Script Discovered in the Ashes" - Vol. 11:3 (Autumn 2003). )〕 Folklore of the Sufi Hamid Cemetery,〔( "Sofi Hamid Cemetery - Life Mirrored in Pastel Colors" - Vol. 13:1 (Spring 2005). )〕 and the relationship of Maiden Tower to the Winter Solstice.〔("Baku’s Maiden Tower and the Relationship to Winter Solstice" – Vol. 14:3 (Autumn 2006). )〕 Also the 2006 Tangaroa Pacific Voyage: "Testing Thor Heyerdahl's Theories about Kon-Tiki 60 Years Later."〔Torgeir Saeverud Higraff with Betty Blair, in (Azerbaijan International, Vol. 14:4 (2006) ), pp. 28-33.〕
Six issues were dedicated to Azerbaijani literature; specifically, the Spring issues of 1996,〔("Contemporary Literature," ) Vol. 4:1 (Spring 1996)〕 1999,〔("Century of Reversals: A Literary Perspective," ) Vol. 7.1 (Spring 1999)〕 2004,〔("Azerbaijani Literature: Passionate Pens in Pursuit of Truth," ) Vol. 12.1 (Spring 2004)〕 2005,〔("The Literature of Stalin's Repressions: And Always Voices Will Ring Out," ) Vol. 14:1 (Spring 2006)〕 and 2011,〔("Who Wrote Azerbaijan's Most Famous Novel - Ali and Nino? The Business of Literature," Vol. 15:2-4 (2011) )〕 and 2013.〔"Yusif Vazir Chamanzaminli: His Life, His Works, His Dreams" Vol. 16:1-2 (forthcoming 2013).〕 The Literature of Stalinist repressions in Azerbaijan〔("Remembering Stalin," Vol. 13:4 (Winter 2005) ) (and "The Literature of Stalin's Repressions," Vol. 14:1 (Spring 2006). )〕 had never been published in English before and is even difficult to find in the Azerbaijani language.
