New Left Review was founded in 1960 in London, which has remained its base ever since. In sixty years of publication, it has won an international reputation as an independent journal of socialist politics and ideas, attracting readers and contributors from every part of the world.
"""Since its inception, the review has been an invaluable source of reasoned analysis and insight into critical issues of policy, economy, society, and contemporary culture. A proud record to carry forward into difficult times ahead."" – Noam Chomsky ""The biography of the review cannot be reduced to a formula: its experience so far has been too rich and too contradictory. It is up to date without being merely journalistic; it is scholarly but unscarred by citation-compulsion; and it is analytical about the long-term forces at work in politics rather than obsessed by the spume of the latest wavelet of manoeuvring and posturing. That's what I admire above all about NLR: its intellectual seriousness – its magnificently strenuous attempt to understand, to analyse, to theorise."" – Stefan Collini, Guardian"
