5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Readable and Respected Publication, April 14, 2004

This review is from: Boston Review (Magazine)
BOSTON REVIEW has slowly built a respected reputation among academics and the general reading public during the past twenty-nine years. Articles and essays in a recent edition covered topics such as the Constitution, an immigration crisis in the European Union and the Patriot Act. The contents also included poetry, fiction, nonfiction reviews, letters and a film review. Among the contributors were Elaine Scarry, Larry Kramer, Michael Standaert, Corey Robin and Barbara Clark Smith.

The journal sees itself as a national forum for political debate and boasts about the fact that it is required reading in a course on cultural criticism and critical argument given by the Brown University English department. It appears to be a moderately left-leaning publication but of course that kind of assessment depends on one's vantage point (I am a registered independent). The periodical is highly readable and you don't have to be an academic to enjoy it.
