Reviews

""These are important pieces that shine a light on some of the most uncomfortable truths about our country. And as Chomsky himself has recognized, it’s hard to think of a magazine other than Boston Review that would have published them."" —Nathan J. Robinson, editor of Current Affairs “It’s timely and rigorous work like this that makes Boston Review indispensable.” —Naomi Klein, author of Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World ""Both the article and the responses exemplify what Boston Review does best, fostering debate that connects theory with  real-world political challenges, speaking across divides, showing us that one does not need to sacrifice philosophical rigor to deliver sound policy advice."" —Lea Ypi, political theorist and author of Free: Coming of Age at the End of History
