Constellations is an international peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing the best of contemporary critical and democratic theory.  Constellations fosters creative thinking in philosophy, politics, social theory, and law. Longstanding assumptions about critical theory - its methods, concepts and emancipatory aims- need to be rethought. The journal aims to help expand the global possibilities for radical politics and social criticism in the coming period.

"No fingerprinting, no requirement of orthodoxy, just the unlimited desire for debate, analyses, reflection and commitment. Constellations is an invaluable critical instrument."
Étienne Balibar, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, University of Nanterre and Professor of Humanities, University of California, Irvine

"If the legacy of Critical Theory is to maintain its relevance in the 21st century, the robust vitality of Constellations will be a major reason. In its relatively short history, it has managed to become the most respected site of advanced work in this tradition on the international scene. No one interested in the latest developments in social and political theory can risk missing an issue."
Professor Martin Jay
