The Communist Review is the theory and discussion journal of the Communist Party of Britain, and has been published continuously from Autumn 1988. The Communist Review intends to engage more consistently in the battle of ideas and emotions, in particular with the issues of neoliberalism, imperialism and diversionary trends such as post-Marxism, and with the degradation of social life through the ruling class’s use of the culture industries and the education system. The journal also reflects major Communist Party of Britain priorities and initiatives, and seeks out and publishes articles on various Marxist approaches internationally, looking in particular at China, Africa, India, the Caribbean and so on.
