Telos is a quarterly, independent peer-reviewed scholarly journal that publishes articles on politics, philosophy, and critical theory, with a particular focus on contemporary political, social, and cultural issues.[1][2][3][4]

Established in May 1968 by Paul Piccone and fellow students at SUNY-Buffalo with the intention of providing the New Left with a coherent theoretical perspective, the journal, which has long considered itself heterodox, has been described as turning to the right politically beginning in the 1980s.[2][5][6]

The journal's masthead lists its editor as David Tse-Chien Pan and its editor emeritus as Russell A. Berman.[7] Piccone died of cancer in 2004 at age 64.[8]

Piccone suggested that the journal's "conservative turn" was a potential source of energy and creativity (Piccone 1994, p.206). While Telos took pride in its transgressions over the years and used its functionality to carve out an identity, the journal's style and affinity for the margin, and letting everyone know that it prefers the margin, may give the impression that heterodox is not just a manner of critique but a way of being.
