Looking Back, Looking Forward: Fifteen Years of Magic, Ritual, and Witchcraft

The editors take this opportunity to examine the conditions under which the journal came into being, its initial vision and initial struggles, and our ongoing attempt to make the journal a truly global and inclusive forum for scholarly discussions of magic, ritual, and witchcraft across wide swaths of time and space.
