Dunno about the Economist.  However Newsweek's International edition has
many different articles, and a different cover, and well as some
identical articles.  I remember this well since I saw a Newsweek in
Europe with a story on Seymour Cray but didn't buy it since I subscribe
to Newsweek in the US.  Unfortunately, my copy did not have that story.

Reader's Digest also replaces some stories for their Canadian edition,
as well as renaming "Life in these United States" to "Life's Like That".
They didn't get that big by being insensitive.
