Razpotja (Slovene for Crossroads) is a Slovenian quarterly cultural magazine, part of the Eurozine network of European magazines.[1]
Razpotja was founded in the autumn of 2010 in Nova Gorica, Slovenia, by a local association of students and young scholars of humanities and social sciences, with the aim to open a new space for public discussion.[2] It has four issues per year, providing a platform for informed non-academic debate, mostly written from the perspective of the millennial generation.[3] Each issue is dedicated to a topic of broad public interest, approached in the form of longreads articulating different standpoints. These articles are usually selected from responses to an open call for papers, thus enabling the participation of emergent authors.[4]
The magazine includes sections of contemporary debates and cultural phenomena in Europe and North America. It is renowned for its long interviews with right-wing and liberal public intellectuals, including Garry Kasparov, Timothy Snyder, Jordan Peterson, Michael Freeden, Dipesh Chakrabarty, Stuart Ewen, Padraic Kenney, Thomas Hylland Eriksen, Jean-Luc Marion, Pieter M. Judson, Simona Škrabec, Jan-Werner Müller, Vinko Globokar, Emilio Gentile, Richard Bosworth, Marci Shore, etc.[5][6][7][8][9]
Since 2014, Razpotja has been collaborating with young Slovenian illustrators, who contribute illustrations and visual essays relating to the main topic of the issue.[10]
As of 2024, the editor-in-chief is Luka Lisjak Gabrijelčič, and the members of the editorial board are Igor Harb, Martin Hergouth, Peter Jerman, Blaž Kosovel, Miha Kosovel, Aljoša Kravanja, Katja Pahor, and Maks Valenčič.[11]
