Wars of Position? Marxism Today, Cultural Politics and the Remaking of the Left Press, 1979-1990
-
An exploration of the connections between political practice and cultural form through the transformation of Marxism Today from a Communist Party theoretical journey into a 'glossy' left magazine.
Marxism Today's success and failures during the 1980s are analysed through its political and cultural critiques of Thatcherism and the left, innovative publicity and marketplace distribution, relationships with the national UK press, cultural coverage, design & format, and writing style.
Wars of position offers insights for contemporary media activists and challenges the neglect of the left press by media scholars.
