Z Magazine is a monthly periodical addressing all sides of social life – politics, economic, gender/kinship, culture/race, ecology, and international relations. Using the store you can either get a new subscription – for a year, two years, or three years – or renew for the same periods of time, if you are already a subscriber. You can also get overseas subscriptions. When you buy a ZSub or Renewal using this store the order comes to ZStaff who process it so you are in the database to receive issues. The issues for a given month- say June – are sent late in the prior month, and the final database updating is about a week or two earlier. So when you subscribe or renew it may take hold for the following month, but it also might not, so it is the next month that would be the first for you.
