Libertarian Review

Libertarian Review

"Libertarian Review" was a libertarian magazine published until 1981. It had been established by Robert Kephart in 1972 as a book-review magazine, initially titled "SIL Book Review" (2 issues), then "Books for Libertarians", and was renamed with the October, 1974 issue. In 1977, Charles Koch purchased the magazine and turned it into a national magazine under the editorship of Roy Childs.

At the time, there were two other slick-paper libertarian magazines, "Reason", which at the time leaned towards the right wing of the libertarian spectrum, and "Inquiry", which tilted left. "Libertarian Review" was more movement-oriented than either magazine. It also differed from both in its strong opposition to nuclear energy.

In the summer of 1981, the Koch Foundation, which was funding "Inquiry" as well as "Libertarian Review", decided that it could not continue to support two magazines and folded "Libertarian Review" into "Inquiry" starting with the January 1982 issue. The last issue was November/December 1981. However, Cato then transferred "Inquiry" to the Libertarian Review Foundation with the February 1982 issue.
