Le Monde diplomatique (French pronunciation: [lə mɔ̃d diplɔmatik]; meaning "The Diplomatic World",[7] and shortened as Le Diplo in French) is a French monthly newspaper founded in 1954, offering mostly analysis and opinion on international politics, culture, and current affairs.[8] As of 2023,[9] there are 33 editions (9 digital-only) in 24 languages worldwide.

Their editorial line has been described as left-wing,[10][11] particularly for its consistent criticisms of neoliberalism[3] and support of alter-globalization, starting around 1973.[2]

The publication is 51% owned by Le Monde diplomatique SA, a subsidiary company of Le Monde, from which it remains editorially independent.
