About us

The “New Critique - Journal for and against” is for a consistent analysis of social conditions and against reactionary nonsense. We take the current unreasonable university system as a starting point for the most comprehensive social criticism possible.
New Critique” is published by the association New Critique e.V. in cooperation with the AStA Uni Hamburg. The articles do not reflect the opinion of the AStA or the entire editorial team, but represent contributions to the discussion by the respective authors.
