The academic historian John R. Griffiths has described its role in its first two decades of existence as:[1]

...to defend the Progressive agenda from Conservative (Moderate) attack, and [...] to play the role as the 'Hansard of local government.'

elsewhere, Griffiths notes:[7]

...the significance of British world publications such as the Municipal Journal, appearing after 1890, in the facilitation of British world progressivism

From 1950-1952, it was published as the Municipal Journal and Public Works Engineer.[8]

As well as news and opinion pieces, the journal has also published articles by academic researchers.[9][10]

The journal also sponsors and hosts an annual "MJ Achievement Awards".[11]
