About Commonplace
Every political movement needs a home for the development and advancement of its ideas and coalition. Commonplace is that home for the New Right, building and sustaining a durable conservative majority that emphasizes the importance of family, community, and industry to the nation’s liberty and prosperity. Through conversations and commentary, reporting and analysis, Commonplace focuses on what matters in America.
“As its name suggests,” Oren Cass explained when we launched, “our magazine’s purpose is twofold: First, to be a common place where not only the American right-of-center’s diverse factions, but also thoughtful interlocutors from across the political spectrum can gather to debate the future of both conservatism and the nation. Second, to focus those conversations on the commonplace—the economic, political, and cultural concerns that shape the experiences of ordinary Americans and, as a result, the trajectory of the American experiment. ”
Who we are
