Relaunch of Limn
Limn is back!
After a brief hiatus, Limn is returning with new projects and a fresh editorial team. We need your help!
Limn 2.0 will continue to approach contemporary problems from oblique and surprising angles. It will remain free and open access online and have beautiful print issues for sale. Limn will remain a not-for-profit, not-just-scholarly journal. We are working to make it more accessible, sustainable, and legible to a wide range of readers.
To make this happen, we aim to raise $20,000 to support our rebooting costs and the first year of operation.
Provided we can meet this goal, Limn 11—The Obsolescence Issue will be released in November of 2024. Subsequent issues (now in the works) will follow soon thereafter.
Thank you for your support!

Demo for Democracy
by: Javier Lezaun Suppose you wanted to test the reality of democracy. Tired of claims and counter-claims, of endless debates about ideals and aspirations, and deeply unconvinced by the arguments of political philosophers, you would like to produce some real, hard facts; to verify, once and for all, that democracy really exists – that it… Read more »
