Editorial Profile

Red Pepper is a magazine of political rebellion and dissent. Influenced by socialism, feminism and green politics, it is a resource for all those who imagine and work to create another world - a world based on equality, solidarity, and democracy.

Launched in May 1995, it has been edited by Hilary Wainwright since 1996 and co-edited with Oscar Reyes until 2009. Since June 2009, James O'Nions and Michael Calderbank have joined Hilary in editing the magazine. In Autumn 2007 Red Pepper relaunched as a bi-monthly magazine with more emphasis on the role of its website.

Unusually for a magazine of the left Red Pepper is independent and non partisan, it seeks to establish a platform for debate and sharing of ideas across the progressive green left in the UK and across the world.
