The Breakthrough Journal

Breakthrough Journal exists to modernize environmental thought for the 21st century, challenging conventional wisdom in service of crafting a relevant and powerful new ecological politics. To this end, Breakthrough Journal publishes long-form essays, commentaries, and reviews that set out to unsettle the many unexamined assumptions upon which contemporary environmental thought and action have been predicated and to reimagine what it means to build and inhabit a good Anthropocene.
