Read Our Latest Papers
Signs of the Times is an independent self-financed collective that exists to provide a space for open discussion on the left.
We host magazine-style articles by academics, activists, journalists, NGO-workers and trade unionists that address contemporary issues of politics and culture.
As part of Sign of the Times preparation for the general elections, we have several new papers which consider important policy areas in the election campaign.
- Oscar Reyes looks at the likely implications for privatisation and surveillance of the 2012 Olympic Bid.
- Neal Lawson searches for signs of Social Democracy in New Labour
- Jeremy Valentine dissects the debate around managerialism and the meaning of New Labour's 'modernisation'.
- Kerry Moore and Joanna Zylinska consider New Labour's politics of immigration.
