Radical Politics Today

We are at a watershed moment in radical politics. Neo-liberalism is in crisis. But is radical politics today in a healthy enough state to seize the opportunity? More fundamentally, in the wake of the global meltdown in 2008, what actually is radical politics today?

This interdisciplinary magazine publishes clearly written articles which explore the spirit of radical politics in our times. It examines the nature and character of what counts as 'radical' today. And so, Radical Politics Today encourages constructive critique of broader contemporary radical practices, not individual personal criticism. The magazine seeks to document, catalogue, and analyse this historical moment.
