Conspiratio is published twice a year as an online periodical but is also available in print. It comprises thematic articles, essays, book reviews, and translations that exemplify what Illich called research by people. Such research names the disciplined and rigorous studies intended for public discussion engaged by those attempting to beautify their lives by being less dependent, in thought and deed, on the market and the state. Though conducted through the written word, the periodical invokes the spirit of con-spiration.
