The Public Interest

From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.

The Public Interest was a quarterly conservative politics and culture journal founded by Irving Kristol in 1965. It grew increasingly neoconservative over the years. Its final issue was printed April 25 2005 after 40 years of being in print. Towards the end its readership had declined significantly, most likely because demand for quarterlies had fallen as the pace of news and information technology had increased.

Its senior editors were Irving Kristol and Nathan Glazer. Its publication committee included Francis Fukuyama, Charles Krauthammer, William Kristol, Charles Murray, and George F. Will.
