Socialist Worker Monthly Review (SWMR) can in some ways be seen as one of several transitory phases in the publishing history of Socialist Worker (NZ). It was launched to replace the weekly Socialist Worker, which was published from 1995-2002, with a monthly paper that could continue the task of intervening in both movement and formal politics from a socialist perspective.

Though published for less than three full years, it occupied an important period for the organisation. Coming as it did in the last six months leading up to the US invasion of Iraq in March 2003, it played a vital role in Socialist Worker’s contribution to the anti-war movement. Going back over the issues one gets a sense for the transitional period in the mid-2000s where the anti-war and anti-globalisation movements started to decline. At the same time new issues, from the Brash campaign to the founding of Unite Union, took center stage. For anyone interested in the years leading up to the Great Financial Crisis and the preoccupations of the left during that time, the pages of SWMR hold a trove of content to dig into.
