AMASS, or formerly known as Enclitic, is an American periodical that was established in 1976. The magazine, edited by John O Kane, primarily publishes essays, interviews, and reviews of books and media relating to alternative politics and ideas. It is published by the Society For Popular Democracy in Los Angeles, California and covers topics media production and independent cinema. It also publishes critical articles on health, lifestyle, and the environment.[1]

AMASS was originally a literary and cultural journal with a European slant. It progressively evolved to become an interdisciplinary forum for politics and culture. Though AMASS has often been referred to as a left-wing publication, it does not explicitly represent any one set of political beliefs. Enclitic changed its name to AMASS in 2000 to reflect its changes (such as target audience). It also wanted to clarify its newfound "dedication to the urgent social, political, economic and cultural issues of the day."[2]
