Quadrant (magazine) Totally Explained

Everything about Quadrant Magazine totally explained

Quadrant is an Australian literary and cultural journal.
The magazine is generally described as conservative. According to Quadrant's website:

Its stance is often described as conservative, neo-conservative, or rightwing. In fact it isn't necessarily any of these things, but maintains a sceptical approach to unthinking Leftism, or political correctness, and its "smelly little orthodoxies".

Quadrant reviews literature, as well as featuring essays on ideas and topics such as universities. It also publishes poetry and short stories. It is published ten times per year and retails for a cover price of AU$8. Keith Windschuttle has recently been nominated to be editor of the magazine from the end of 2007.

History

The magazine was founded in 1956 by Richard Krygier, a Polish-Jewish refugee who had been active in social-democrat politics in Europe and James McAuley, a Catholic poet, famous for the anti-modernist Ern Malley hoax. An initiative of the Australian Committee for Cultural Freedom, the Australian arm of the Congress for Cultural Freedom, Quadrant was part of anti-Communist kulturkampf. When rightwing social democrat Robert Manne was editor in the 1990s, the magazine showed some sympathy for Aboriginal rights. However, Manne resigned in 1997 because of opposition to his perceived move to the left. Manne was succeeded by journalist and self-described contrarian Padraic McGuinness until his death.
