They formerly published the War/Peace Report which was "devoted to war/peace issues in general, with a lot of attention to the role of the United Nations; it was not specifically focused on Vietnam, though it did pay attention to Vietnam. Some issues have been placed on-line in the Virtual Vietnam Archive of the Vietnam Project, at Texas Tech University".
