The New Republic

Liberal. Founded in 1914, The New Republic is one of the oldest voices of American liberalism, and today it makes the progressive case on democracy, inequality, climate and corporate power in a print magazine published ten times a year alongside a daily website. Pick it when you want the liberal argument made with a sharper political edge than The American Prospect's policy detail, but in a broader register than Jacobin's socialism. Its long political features and books coverage are where the magazine argues most carefully, and they reward readers who come to it skeptical.
