Synopsis

Liberties is a quarterly journal of serious, stylish, and controversial essays on culture and politics.

In the Winter 2025 issue: Tim Wu explains why the only way for capitalism to flourish in the future is by decentralizing; Marci Shore encounters Ukrainian thinkers under fire; John Summers tells a true story highly unflattering to God; Michael Ignatieff wonders how to lead a liberal life; James Wolcott has his way with the celebrity worship at The New York Times; Maurice Isserman warns about the direction of the contemporary American left; Sally Satel documents the politicization of American psychotherapy; Len Gutkin reckons with the cultural cost of secularism; Robert Alter unpacks the literary greatness of the book of Job; Elena Kagan insists on giving William Wyler his due; Celeste Marcus takes a hard look at the debate about rape in war; Leon Wieseltier ponders the ways in which metaphysics makes life in the physical world bearable; and poetry from Katha Pollit and Yehuda Halevi.

Liberties features essays from leading op-ed writers and scholars, award-winning writers, the next generation's rising talent, and poets from around the world--there's a reason why cultural warriors, political leaders, opinion makers, and engaged citizens from across political and cultural spectrum read and cherish Liberties.
