Submission Guidelines

.ADBUSTERS is dedicated to reinventing the outdated paradigms of our consumer culture and building a brave new understanding of living. We relish all truly political materials, whether they be scholarly probes into the decline of civilization, environmental forays into the forests, sci-fi carpet rides into cyberspace or humorous spoofs about commercial culture. More than anything, we seek compelling ideas that further the critical perspective and offer activist solutions. Our language is culture jamming: the new activism.

Our audience is global. We have subscribers in 40 countries and we are on newsstands in North America, Australia, the United Kingdom and Japan. Our circulation is 120,000 and constantly growing. We are neither left nor right, but straight ahead. Many of our readers are serious activists on the academic, entrepreneurial, environmental and communications fronts.
