Subscribe to Jewish Socialist magazine

Jewish Socialist is a magazine launched by the Jewish Socialists’ Group in 1985 as a forum for radical ideas and opinions on issues directly affecting the Jewish community in Britain and elsewhere, and on questions vital to minorities and socialists everywhere.

Through this forum we aim to

• highlight the clash of political, economic and cultural interests in our community
• encourage the democratisation of all aspects of Jewish life and publicise and support all democratic forces in the Jewish community
• highlight the struggle for equality for women and gays and lesbians within and beyond our community
• promote views that link the interests of Jewish people to the interests of other national and cultural minorities and oppressed groups, locally, nationally and internationally, and to a common socialist future
• counter myths about the “shrinking”, “dying” and “assimilating” diaspora by affirming the vitality of Jewish communities across the world
• counter Zionist ideology, which subordinates the needs of diaspora Jews to the demands of Israeli state nationalism, and justifies exclusivist, discriminatory and repressive practices towards the Palestinian people
• promote ideas and perspectives that offer a progressive solution to conflicts involving the Jewish people such as the Israel/Palestine conflict
• expose and oppose fundamentalist ideas and religious coercion within and beyond our community
• reclaim a “people’s history” of the Jews which connects our historical experience to the struggles of other working people and the oppressed
• highlight the problems facing minorities in society and within progressive movements and make these concerns central to discussions of socialist strategy here and now
• support and promote radical progressive cultural initiatives within and beyond the Jewish community
• promote views which link the struggle to build socialism with the struggle for a healthy and sustainable environment
• promote a socialism that is culturally pluralist and fully democratic both in its ends and means.
