This edited volume offers a state-of-the-art synthesis of the
historical role of radical journalism, its present iterations, and
plans for the future of a journalism that is committed to
liberatory movements and politics. At a time of profound crisis and
stagnation for mainstream journalism, radical journalism seems to
be riding a wave. New outlets, including those – like Jacobin –
with a global reach, have sprung up, presenting a new generation of
unapologetically progressive publications with an emancipatory
agenda. Understanding the role and place of radical journalism
becomes even more urgent given the current political climate in a
(post) pandemic world with heightened inequalities and intensified
pauperisation. Drawing on contributions from leading academics,
this collection considers: • How new outlets fit in the genealogy
of (radical) journalism and what their flourishing can tell us
about the present and future of emancipatory politics and the role
of the radical journalist; • What these new forms and
publications mean for mainstream journalism and its persisting
problems of financial sustainability and professional journalistic
labour; • Important challenges presented by, for example, the
resurgence of fascism, authoritarianism and the mainstreaming of
the far right; • Essential questions of what radical journalism
looks like today, what forms it takes or should take, and what its
future might be. Radical Journalism is recommended reading for
advanced students and journalists working at the intersection of
journalism, politics, and sociology.
