The Public Interest (1965–2005) was a quarterly public policy journal founded by Daniel Bell and Irving Kristol, members of the loose New York intellectuals group, in 1965.[1][2] It was a leading neoconservative journal on political economy and culture, aimed at a readership of journalists, scholars and policy makers.[2]
