Original publication: 1950-1962 The Socialist Review began its life in 1950 as the main publication of the Socialist Review Group (SRG). Beginning as a duplicated magazine the parent group only being able to afford to have it printed from 1954 onwards. In its last years it lost its central importance to the SRG due to the launch in 1960 of a new journal International Socialism and in 1961 a newspaper, Industrial Worker that eventually became the weekly Socialist Worker. Socialist Review was discontinued in 1962 - the year in which the SRG became the International Socialists. 1960 (MCMLX) was a leap year starting on Friday (the link is to a full 1960 calendar). ...

Monthly magazine:1978-2005 In 1978 the title Socialist Review was launched by the Socialist Workers Party, as the IS had become known. The monthly magazine was renamed Socialist Workers Review in the 1990s later reverting to the better known title and has remained the monthly magazine of the SWP.
In 2003, the selling of the SWP's Printing Press, for which they give the reason that it was outdated technology that was too expensive to replace, forced them to find new printers for the magazine, it is now printed by Warners Midlands plc. However this opened up the opportunity of full colour throughout and of a more professional appearance generally. This has helped to further the push for wider readership particularly outside the ranks of the SWP. The final issue in this format, number 302, was published in December 2005.
Editors The final editor of SR in this format was Chris Nineham. The magazine was edited by Lindsey German, who is convener of the Stop the War Coalition, till May 2004 and from June 2004 to October, 2005 by Peter Morgan. Chris Nineham is a British Trotskyist and a member of the Central Committee of the Socialist Workers Party. ...

Supplement to Socialist Worker:2006 to present At the SWP conference in January 2006, a plan was put forward to radically change the format of Socialist Review turning it into a monthly supplement for Socialist Worker, though retaining the cover price so it could continue to be sold seperately. The stated reason for the change was "The new magazine would draw upon the strengths of both Socialist Worker and Socialist Review and will use the better sale and distribution of the paper to reach a wider audience."[1]. The first issue in this format appeared in February 2006.
