With the strap line ‘Reason in Revolt’, Jacobin tackles politics from a firmly leftist standpoint, offering socialist perspectives on politics, economics, and culture. Recent issues of Jacobin have seen the New York-crafted magazine expand; in terms of its physical size, pagination, and (by the looks of things) its team, which has also seen a reshuffle.
This issue leads with the myth of the surgical strike—the US belief in attacking without injuring civilians. Plus a critique of President Obama’s Chicago monument to his presidency, an examination of how Donald Trump has damaged the US Dollar, and a claim on The Beatles as man of the left.
