Imprints aims to promote a critical discussion of egalitarian and socialist ideas, freed from theoretical dogma but committed to the viability of an egalitarian and democratic politics, and open to the possibility of such politics at the international level. We take it for granted that most societies in the world are characterised by class oppression, but that class division does not exhaust the unjust inequalities to which their peoples are subject.

Contributions are invited on topics such as the theory and practice of equality in domestic and global contexts, the theory of history, the normative foundations of social inquiry; and on social inequality, political practice, and institutional change. The criteria for the acceptance of papers include analytical power and empirical rigour; no school of thought or intellectual tradition is excluded, though we are committed to the view that the world remains a rationally intelligible place.
