Harper's is one of magazines I subscribe to. One of if not the best imho.
Lewis Lapham still contribute on occasion. He also created Lapham's Quarterly which would like to subscribe to but barely have time to keep up with others I read (Harper's, Atlantic, Wired).
Ken Silverstein and Scott Horton are/have been excellent bloggers for Harper's.
