An Journal would be declared whether its national or international based on its level of circulation...

but, even if an an journal have contributors specific to a single country but has been subscribed and circulated to different nation then it can be called as international journal....

Today some organizations have journals entitled inter-national journals, these are not international journals they are national journals and they are promoted so with the objective of increasing their circulation and raising money...

Answer 2

National means the conference covers all the regions within one country, or one nation whereas international conference means more than one country or nation is involved, eg the United Nations general assembly is an international conference.

An international conference gathers in delegates worldwide. An example being the recent G8 international monitory gathering where various countries came together.

A national conference has delegates from a single country or political party. An example being the annual party conference held by either Labour, Conservative or Liberals usually in a seaside venue in the UK. Workers unions also hold national conferences.
