“Who are we?

Prospect is the UK’s outstanding monthly current affairs title—a home for fine writing, robust debate and considered reflection on the biggest issues of our time. Prospect has always been politically independent, with no party-political affiliation or agenda. It is owned and supported by the Resolution Group as part of its not-for-profit, public interest activities.

Britain’s young adults are locked out of housing and jobs, crushed by student debt and the cost of living. For the cover story of our 128-page summer special, Marie Le Conte argues that it’s time they were given back their future. Elsewhere, Alona Ferber visits Israel ahead of key elections, Jen Stout reports on Ukraine’s drone-warfare success and Katherine Stewart explores the science, hucksterism and promise of the longevity movement. Among our profiles, Ben Okri tells Graeme Green about the importance of storytelling and Imaan Irfan meets photographer Misan Harriman. In culture, Kate Maltby reviews three key books about male power while Fiammetta Rocco and Alexander Larman reflect on the epic legacy of the Odyssey. Rhun ap Iorwerth, first minister of Wales, reveals his cultural Hinterland.
