American political magazine founded in 2002 as a vehicle for paleoconservative dissent from neoconservative foreign policy dominance; publishes commentary skeptical of American interventionism, globalization, and liberal cultural hegemony from a traditionalist, nationalist, and localist perspective.
A rare institutional voice for paleoconservative, anti-interventionist conservatism at odds with the mainstream neoconservative consensus; published prescient critiques of the Iraq War from the right before the invasion; gave platform to traditionalist Catholic, communitarian, and localist perspectives underrepresented in mainstream conservative media.
