ABSTRACT

We present this special edition issue of Social Alternatives to celebrate our 40th anniversary and renewed commitment to the social and political project of ‘providing a radical outlet for the communication of new ideas’ and ‘formulating alternatives to existing policies and structures’ (Summy 1977: 4). Contributions for this issue were invited from past and current members of the editorial collective, the advisory board and guest editors. Contributors were asked to give account of the way that the journal has given them the opportunity to speak back to conventional assumptions about social and political issues and to open up new ways of conceptualising solutions.
