The Battleground isn’t just for articles. We’re a book and record publisher, too.
We complement our politics and culture commissions with Battleground author anthologies and field recording full-lengths. 2025 will continue this tradition.
The budget for these releases is for their design, production and promotion. Our book and audio imprints, Battleground Books and Battleground Sounds, will publish them.
- A book on Donald Trump’s first term by our US editor, John Foster;
- Our first photo book, on migrants and minorities in Italy, by our Turin-based editor-in-chief, Joel Schalit;
- A collection of essays on Israeli politics by Jewish Voice for Peace co-founder and former B’tselem US director Mitchell Plitnick;
- The first of a two-album series of field recordings of refugees and migrants in the Mediterranean region by Vance Galloway and Joel Schalit;
- Field recordings of the Heathrow Airport runway-adjacent London borough of Hounslow, by Duncan Simpson;
- Protests against the Gaza war in Turin and Milan, recorded by Joel Schalit;
- 24 podcasts promoting these publications, to be broadcast throughout 2025.
