"Radical Education Dossier" is arguably the most successful independent continuous radical educational publication ever produced; made without financial support or institutional backing of any kind, surviving on the will and efforts of changing Editorial Collectives for more than 60 Issues over three decades, directly influencing at least two generations of readers, and establishing itself firmly in the field of education as a major player. This article charts the genesis of the Dossier and the manner in which it was introduced and produced.
