We are watching the rebirth of colonization and a colonial mentality of a new type represented by the ‘human rights’brigades and their friends in Le Monde and Liberation, of which the war in Iraq and the failure of the West to force Israel to retreat from its colonial positions are good examples. And tied to that is the process of neo-liberalism and the neo-liberal economy, which makes democracy itself into a very hollow shell” Tariq Ali, Naked Punch Review 06

Naked Punch believes in free access to knowledge, and we therefore publish on-line, after a period of three months, most of the articles that appear in the printed edition. The printed edition remains easier to read, aesthetic, filled with art, and much more rewarding to read through.

If you can, please donate something to Naked Punch, to help us keep these resources free for everyone. From Issue #6
