''Alternative Press Review'' (byline: "Your guide beyond the mainstream") is a libertarian〔 American magazine established in 1993 as a sister periodical to ''Anarchy: A Journal of Desire Armed''.〔 The first issue was published in Fall 1993. As of 2002, its editorial collective consisted of Jason McQuinn (''Anarchy''), Chuck Munson (Infoshop.org) and Thomas Wheeler (''Out of Bounds'').〔 Munson was co-editor and reviewer from 1997 to 2003, when he was replaced by Allan Antliff. The magazine was first published by C.A.L. Press and then by AAL Press. According to its self-description, "''The Alternative Press Review'' is your window on the world of independent media. ''APR'' publishes a wide variety of the best essays from radical zines, books, magazines, blogs and web sites. Plus, ''APR'' publishes a selection of short and lively article excerpts, along with reviews, commentary and columns on the alternative press scene and other alternative media."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://alternativepressreview.org/ )〕 In practice the magazine has featured media criticism (e.g. "The Decline of American Journalism" by Daniel Brandt), coverage of resistance movements (e.g. "An Interview with Zapatista Women" by Guio Rovera Sancho), and cultural criticism (e.g. "Immediatism vs. Capitalism" by Hakim Bey, "Flyposter Frenzy" by Matthew Fuller, and "Dark Age: Why Johnny can't Dissent" by Tom Frank). The magazine's chief concerns, according to ''New Statesman'' are "sex, other media and the CIA".〔 Contributors to the review have included McQuinn, Noam Chomsky, David Barsamian, Richard Heinberg and Harold Pinter. ''Alternative Press Review'' was criticized by Kirsten Anderberg in a 2005 issue for the fact that its contributors were overwhelmingly male, a phenomenon that according by Wheeler is a result of low numbers of submissions from female writers.〔 McQuinn responded to Anderberg by stating that the gender of writers and publishers within socially conscious alternative and radical media was "simply irrelevant".〔 The review was described in 1994 by the ''Atlanta Journal-Constitution'' as "()loser to the edge of the magazine world, and not quite as articulate as the ''Utne Reader''"〔 – the magazine's main rival and market leader.〔 Ian Hargreaves, writing in the ''New Statesman'' in 1998, called the magazine "the real rivet-spitter on the block" of alternative media,〔 while a 1999 ''OC Weekly'' feature hailed it as "the essential nutrient missing from one’s daily McMedia diet of misinformation and disinformation."〔 ==See also== * List of anarchist periodicals 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alternative Press Review」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
