Crosscurrents is the salon of Concordia Discors Magazine—a place where guest writers join our dialogue on liberty, conscience, and culture. Here, independent thinkers test ideas against one another like tides: sometimes colliding, sometimes converging, always in motion.

We imagine these pieces read aloud in a quiet room at dusk. Berlin leans back, Popper interrupts, John Paul II listens in thought, Solzhenitsyn watches in silence.
If your words could hold their attention—if they could spark reflection more than applause—you belong here.

Crosscurrents | Guest Reflections features essays, fragments, and reflections from invited contributors whose work embodies lucidity, integrity, and the courage to think in the open.
