About this Journal
Affirmations: of the modern seeks to stir up modernism studies by publishing work that unsettles the empiricist consensus and pursues unusual, ambitious, and theoretically adventurous paths around the field. We are particularly interested in political interventions against racism, patriarchy, sexual essentialism and class society; showing how modernist art and literature sought to affirm a better way of organizing life than adapting to the routine accumulation of capital in a social formation characterized by injustice and war.
