It is edited by Daphne Lawless, and each issue focuses on a central theme of interest to the socialist and radical left movement.The first edition of Unity, published in December 2005, explored the issue of Left regroupment both in New Zealand and internationally. The second edition (March 2006) looked at the history of the Labour Party, contending that traditional Social Democracy had now morphed into Social Liberalism.The third edition (published in June 2006) looked at radical union movements and was entitled "Strike! The Workers Weapon", investigating key flashpoints between the labour movement and capital in New Zealand in 1913, 1951 and more recent times. A fourth copy (September 2006) developed a positive analysis of the Venezuelan Revolution, contending that Latin America was now a continent in revolt, leading the way to a Socialism of the 21st Century.

Unity Kosmic unity, incomprehensible to humans, implies wholeness, homogeneity, uniformity, indivisibility -- individuality. Its primary expression is kosmic space. Unity can be applied to any individual, such as the First Logos or any subordinate logos; again, any individual monadic unit is de facto a unity. Unity, in contrast with duality or multiplicity, is relative, as when we speak of a whole in relation to its parts, the unitary essence of a compound body, or the hyparxis of a hierarchy. The tendency of evolution on an upward arc is towards unity; on a downward arc, towards diversity; and both tendencies are active in the human being.
With Pythagoras, one is not a number but the root of all numbers flowing out of it, but in modern views it is the first number. It may be called mystically dual, for as a power of 2 it must be even, while as 1 less than 2 it must be odd. Unity may be viewed as simple or as all-inclusive; it appears as the goal of both analysis and synthesis.
In considering how the One becomes the many, how the homogeneous becomes heterogeneous, during the differentiations during manvantara, we are posing the ultimate problem. The unity during manvantaric kosmic differentiation does not lose its unity in the vast diversities of such differentiation, for the unity forever remains the originant and expresses itself at the same time as its integral unity and as the emanated hierarchies which temporarily flow forth from it, in time to return into it again.
