Thank you very much for this news. I certainly look forward to reading the 
issue.

However your paraise of Critical Review seems to me bit overdrawn.

I have not consulted critical review often so I can not pass any judgments. 
Also I have not seen recnet issue as it might have changed its course. 
However in my expereince it is a very conservative journal and very 
uncritical about its own assumptions.

I remember reading few articles on Foucault and others on capitalism and 
they did not reperesent up to date knowledge of the subject and were very 
prejudiced.

Regards
ali

Subject: [HAB:] CRITICAL REVIEW Vol. 15, Nos. 1-2

Dear Habermasians,

Get a copy of CRITICAL REVIEW Vol. 15, Nos. 1-2 ASAP!

It is a remarkable Habermas-oriented issue on "Democratic Theory vs. 
Reality."

http://www.criticalreview.com/

I am happy to bring this recent news of CRITICAL REVIEW: An 
Interdisciplinary
Journal of Politics and Society.  Though CRITICAL REVIEW rarely slacks on
credentials, it is also willing to take risks.  The lead editor, Jeffrey
Friedman, has a Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale, and the line-up 
follows
accordingly; yet the editorial board does a remarkable job of not 
overlooking
pioneering efforts where credentials do not necessarily apply.  All too 
often,
journals represent insular enclaves of academic consensus.  Not so with 
CRITICAL
REVIEW.  The remarkable thing about CRITICAL REVIEW is that it is perhaps 
the only
high quality journal that actually engages people with opposing viewpoints 
in
an inevitably provocative debate.  What is even more remarkable is the level
of civility that has been maintained in the process.

As usual, the scholars in the latest issue are highly accomplished and
innovative.  Hope you will enjoy.
