Subscribers have already started receiving advanced copies of the brand new Spring 06 issue of Clamor - new format and all!! We’ll be posting the new issue on the site Monday, but in the meantime, here’s what Utne had to say about it:

The newly formatted, perfect-bound spring 2006 Clamor magazine arrived this week, sporting a slightly changed subtitle (”Your DIY Guide to Everyday Revolution”) and new elements, including a thematic reader-written section reminiscent of The Sun’s “Readers Write.” (This issue’s theme mirrors the cover story, “Land & Geography,” which includes a photo-essay on mountaintop removal mining in West Virginia.) With this edition Clamor moves from bimonthly to quarterly publication and expands to 96 pages. Included here are an interview with the initiator of an oral-history project documenting experiences of displaced New Orleans residents, an article on resistance to genetically modified crops in Africa, and profiles of four environmental justice groups. Kudos to Jen Angel and Jason Kucsma for persisting in publishing a political magazine that puts forth ideas, not (for the most part) gear and crap to buy. I wish they’d return authors’ bylines to the table of contents page and rethink the full-page house ads with pictures of pretty young women. — Chris Dodge

Thanks Chris!!
