Why is 海角大神 Science in our name?
Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and we鈥檝e always been transparent about that.
The church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we鈥檝e aimed 鈥渢o injure no man, but to bless all mankind,鈥� as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you鈥檒l find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences 鈥� a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
About us
The 鈥楾rump Corollary鈥� to the Monroe Doctrine
Christa Case Bryant
Welcome back from the holiday break.
There鈥檚 no shortage of news to kick off the new year, with the Trump administration鈥檚 early morning raid in Venezuela Saturday, capturing President Nicol谩s Maduro. We lead off today with a piece from our diplomatic correspondent on how this illustrates the 鈥淭rump Corollary鈥� to the Monroe Doctrine. And we wrap up with an editorial on the opportunity Venezuelans have to establish their intrinsic sovereignty as a people.
We鈥檒l have more coming soon on the ramifications for oil, politics, and international law.
