What's that site

July 29, 2014 4:09 AM

I remember discovering a site in, god, 2007 or 2008 I think, possible through Metafilter, that had a theme every month (I very much remember the theme 'Anarchy') and published a number of essays around that theme. Not essays by readers, essays by scholars. I think the essays somehow had to be written in reaction to each other. It was super interesting, but I lost track of it and now I don't know what it was called anymore, or even whether it still exists. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Best answer: Try "Cato Unbound," at cato.org -- that's my best guess.

You've apparently already found your answer, but if anyone else was reminded of the website started by Derek Powazek in the late 90s, it's Fray, which is still going in a print edition. (Archive here.)

If you like this sort of themed concept you might enjoy Lapham's Quarterly.

Response by poster: Thanks guys. I'm a LQ subscriber already, and Fray looks very interesting, so good calls.
