A landmark anthology drawn from seven decades of one of Britain's most influential left-wing political journals, Lines of Dissent presents a rich collection of journalism, essays, and commentary published in the New Statesman between 1913 and 1988. Edited by Stephen Howe with an introduction by Christopher Hitchens, the volume chronicles the intellectual currents, political debates, and cultural controversies that shaped progressive thought in Britain across the twentieth century. Contributors range from the founding Fabian voices of the early magazine to the sharp polemicists of the 1980s, illustrating how the publication served as a barometer of the left's evolving conscience. The collection argues, implicitly and explicitly, for the enduring relevance of dissent as a political and literary tradition, making it an indispensable document for students of British political history and journalism alike.
