AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This article reflects on the history of The Journal of Commonwealth Literature as it connects to my personal engagement with the naming and re-naming of the field of Commonwealth / postcolonial / Empire studies across my academic career and contrasting institutional orientations. It considers the ways in which we can shape our field by aligning our critical attention with particular modes of scholarly engagement and sociopolitical commitments.'  (Publication abstract)

    'This issue marks a significant moment in the journal’s 58-year history: its transition from the Journal of Commonwealth Literature to Literature, Critique, and Empire Today. In this editorial, which prefaces a special issue of ten short articles responding to this change, we outline our reasons for renaming the journal, chart our aims and ambitions for the journal as we move towards its seventh decade, and reflect on the essays that follow.'
