Upping the Anti #9: A Journal of Theory and Action

Upping the Anti is a Canadian radical journal published twice a year. It contains theoretical and critical articles, interviews, and roundtables. Upping the Anti also includes a book review section where activists assess new writing on the Left. “Upping the Anti” refers to their interest in assessing the interwoven tendencies that define the politics of today’s radical left: anti-capitalism, anti-oppression, and anti-imperialism.
