An issue of: Radical History Review

Contributors to this special issue examine periodicals and other print ephemera—newspapers, literary journals, magazines, pamphlets, and handbills—as crucial sites of Left, anti-imperial, and anticolonial critical production. These publications have generated oppositional networks, critical concepts, and alternative artistic practices linking local concerns to global revolutionary praxis, the authors argue; and through this work, independent periodicals bring about other worlds by challenging imperial, colonial, and authoritarian state interests. This issue is part of a multiyear, collaborative research project, which one can explore at revolutionarypapers.org.
