The Atlantic Monthly Group

Since 1857, The Atlantic has been challenging assumptions and pursuing truth. Now in its third century of publication, The Atlantic still seeks to imagine a better nation and world. The Atlantic's expanded coverage of economy and society will explore critical debates, introduce bold new thinkers and ideas, and challenge settled assumptions. By broadening the terms of the debate and diversifying the voices that contribute to it, The Atlantic will focus attention on the critical question of how the economy can better serve the needs of ordinary people. This grant maintains editorial independence for the Atlantic's newsroom.
