The emphasis is in the area of foreign policy, an area where the magazine wielded considerable influence during the George W. Bush administration. The primary sources are a large number of representative writing from the Weekly Standard, along with writers from other magazines, as well as memoirs from main actors of the Bush administration. The sources beyond the magazine show the larger context in which the Weekly Standard took part, and how the magazine responded to government policies. The Weekly Standard has since its beginning been associated with the political persuasion of neoconservatism.

  • Ward Churchill
    The Myth of Academic Freedom: Experiencing the Application of Liberal Principle in a Neoconservative Era Ward Churchill The University of Colorado was created and is maintained to afford men and women a liberal education in the several branches of literature, arts, sciences, and the professions. These aims can be achieved only in an atmosphere of free inquiry and discussion, which has become a tradition of universities and is called “academic freedom.” For this purpose, “academic freedom” is defined as the freedom to inquire, discover, publish and teach truth as the faculty member sees it, subject to no control or authority save the control and authority of the rational methods by which truth is established. Within the bounds of this definition, academic freedom means that members of the faculty must have complete freedom to study, to learn, to do research, and to communicate the results of these pursuits to others. The students likewise must have freedom of study and discussion. The fullest exposure to conflicting opinions is the best insurance against error [. .]. All members of the academic community have a responsibility to protect the university as a forum for the free expression of ideas. —Laws of the Regents of the University of Colorado Article 5, Part D: Principles of Academic Freedom1 It would be difficult to improve upon the articulation of principle just quoted, especially since the statement goes on in the following subsection to state that, “[f]aculty members have a responsibility to [. .] exert themselves to the limit of their intellectual capacities in scholarship, research, writing, and speaking” and that, “[w]hile they fulfill this responsibility, their efforts should not be subjected to direct or indirect pressures or interference from within the university, and the university will resist to the utmost such pressures or inter- ference when exerted from without.”2 In sum, “[f]aculty members can ______________ Portions of this article originally appeared in The Perils of Academic Freedom special issue of Social Text 25.1 (Spring 2007): 17-39.

  • The Climate Crisis South African and Global Democratic Eco-Socialist Alternatives
    DEMOCRATIC MARXISM DEMOCRATIC MARXISM SERIES Series Editor: Vishwas Satgar The crisis of Marxism in the late twentieth century was the crisis of orthodox and van- guardist Marxism associated mainly with hierarchical communist parties, and imposed, even as state ideology, as the ‘correct’ Marxism. The Stalinisation of the Soviet Union and its eventual collapse exposed the inherent weaknesses and authoritarian mould of vanguardist Marxism. More fundamentally, vanguardist Marxism was rendered obsolete but for its residual existence in a few parts of the world, as well as within authoritarian national liberation movements in Africa and in China. With the deepening crises of capitalism, a new democratic Marxism (or democratic his- torical materialism) is coming to the fore. Such a democratic Marxism is characterised in the following ways: • Its sources span non-vanguardist grassroots movements, unions, political fronts, mass parties, radical intellectuals, transnational activist networks and parts of the progressive academy; • It seeks to ensure that the inherent categories of Marxism are theorised within constantly changing historical conditions to find meaning; • Marxism is understood as a body of social thought that is unfinished and hence challenged by the need to explain the dynamics of a globalising capitalism and the futures of social change; • It is open to other forms of anti-capitalist thought and practice, including cur- rents within radical ecology, feminism, emancipatory utopianism and indigenous thought; • It does not seek to be a monolithic and singular school of thought but engenders contending perspectives; • Democracy, as part of the heritage of people’s struggles, is understood as the basis for articulating alternatives to capitalism and as the primary means for con- stituting a transformative subject of historical change.
