We Have to Be Willing to Say the World Has Changed and Now We Have to Figure Out How to Deal With That: An Interview With Charles Levenstein, About New Solutions

New Solutions: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy has been published for 25 years. To acknowledge this milestone, Dr. Pia Markkanen interviewed Charles Levenstein, Editor Emeritus of the journal, in August 2015. The purpose of this interview was to review the journal's history: from its earliest roots to the present. New Solutions began in 1990 as a project with the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers Union (OCAW). Dr. Charles Levenstein was the founding editor and Tony Mazzocchi was the original publisher. We've tapped Dr. Levenstein's memory to learn the intent of starting the journal and how it developed. The interview presents some of the challenges of sustaining a movement journal with the mission of being a bridge between academics and researchers and workers, environmentalists, as well as advocates and activists.
