Current Affairs is an American bimonthly magazine that discusses political and cultural topics from a left-wing perspective. It was founded by Oren Nimni and Nathan J. Robinson in 2015. The magazine is published in print and online, and also has a podcast.[4][5] It does not feature advertising, and is funded by subscriptions and donations.
Its political stances have been described as socialist,[6] progressive,[7] and broadly leftist.[8] The magazine's stated mission is "to produce the world's first readable political publication and to make life joyful again."[1] Its format is influenced by magazines such as Jacobin and Spy.[9]
