Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy is a quarterly interdisciplinary

Jacobin Magazine, Catalyst attempts to "promote wide-ranging discussion and to organized debate on the urgent questions facing the working class, the emergent mass movements, and radical and socialist political organizations."[2]

Establishment

In 2015, Chibber and Brenner approached Bhaskar Sunkara about the possibility of publishing a theoretical journal of socialist politics where Chibber and Brenner would assume editorial control, while Jacobin would design, produce, and circulate the journal. The intention of Catalyst was to address and compensate for a perceived generational gap in left-wing politics after the New Left, taking up political questions commonly explored in the past by the American left and readdressing them to the millennial audience that makes up the Jacobin readership.[3]

Bhaskar Sunkara has described Catalyst as "a more theoretical journal, a more academic journal" compared to Jacobin.[4]

The first issue of Catalyst was officially released in May of 2017 at celebration at the In These Times offices in Chicago.[5]
