Editorial Profile |
The Nation is America's oldest weekly magazine and the largest
journal of opinion. Established by abolitionists in 1865, The Nation has
long been regarded as one of the country's definitive journalistic voices.
For more than 140 years of writing on politics, culture, books and the arts,
The Nation has remained true to its original commitment to be the critical,
independent voice in American journalism. James Baldwin, Ralph Nader
and Hunter Thompson published their first pieces in The Nation. Other
contributors have included Martin Luther King Jr., Albert Einstein, Eleanor
Roosevelt, Emma Goldman and Jean-Paul Sartre. The Nation has a proud
literary history as well, having published the work of W.H. Auden, Langston
Hughes, Sylvia Plath, Henry James, Willa Cather, Thomas Mann and
hundreds of other major writers.
