Prospect

Prospect is a voice of calm at a time when so many people increasingly feel they have to shout to be heard. For 27 years, Prospect has been an oasis of ideas, good writing and thoughtful debate in a desert of information chaos. Fewer and fewer people know which voices to trust. Societies—and the media that reflect them—are becoming more polarised. Populist rhetoric is replacing reasoned discussion. Too many people have stopped listening. People mistrust the so-called gatekeepers of knowledge: but they distrust the anarchy of social media even more. Prospect is independent: we have no political affiliation or agenda. We promise never to tell you what to think or how to vote.
