Mission

The Foundation for the Study of Independent Social Ideas publishes Dissent, a quarterly magazine of politics and ideas. Founded by Irving Howe and Lewis Coser in 1954, Dissent quickly established itself as one of America’s leading intellectual journals and a mainstay of the democratic left. It has published articles by Hannah Arendt, Richard Wright, Norman Mailer, A. Philip Randolph, Michael Harrington, Dorothy Day, Bayard Rustin, Czesław Miłosz, Barbara Ehrenreich, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Chinua Achebe, Ellen Willis, Octavio Paz, Martha Nussbaum, Roxane Gay, and many others. Dissent is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We publish the very best in political argument, and take pride in cultivating the next generation of labor journalists, cultural critics, and political polemicists.
