Leaping Toward a Different Future

Abstract

Over the past 40 years 'Social Alternatives' has played a key role in promoting critical scholarship, informed commentary and debate in Australia. It has done so through a variety of mediums such as scholarly articles, commentaries, poetry, cartoons and book reviews. Some of Australia's leading progressive thinkers have contributed to the journal. I commend all those past and present participants - editors, writers, artists and others - who have helped advance the reputation of Social Alternatives as one of Australia's leading progressive publications.
