Modern Age A Conservative Review About Founded in 1957 by the great writer and thinker Russell Kirk, Modern Age is the forum for stimulating debate and discussion of the most important ideas of concern to conservatives of all stripes. Under the leadership of acclaimed editor Daniel McCarthy, Modern Age plays a vital role in these contentious, confusing times by applying timeless principles to the specific conditions and crises of our age—to what Kirk, in the inaugural issue, called “the great moral and social and political and economic and literary questions of the hour.” Country of Publication & Year Established United States Established in 1957 Publication Media & Frequency Electronic Publication Electronic PublicationPublished 4 x per yearPrint Publication Print PublicationPublished 4 x per year AI Policy Unknown AI policy Collapse section Nonfiction Open Query first.Audience:Open to a broad Audience.Lengths: Review: Up to 2,500 words.
