Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Phenomenology and Existentialism:
The journal frequently engages with phenomenological and existentialist traditions, particularly through the works of philosophers like Jan Patočka, Edmund Husserl, and Martin Heidegger. This focus allows for deep explorations of human experience, consciousness, and the nature of existence. - Ethics and Political Philosophy:
A significant portion of the journal's publications addresses ethical frameworks and political philosophy, often analyzing contemporary issues through the lens of classical theories. Topics include solidarity ethics, the implications of populism, and the ethical dimensions of technology. - Historical Philosophical Analysis:
The journal often revisits historical philosophical figures and movements, analyzing their relevance in modern contexts. This includes the reception of Nietzsche, the influence of Maurice Blondel, and the critique of neoliberalism, among others. - Interdisciplinary Approaches:
The journal embraces interdisciplinary methodologies, integrating insights from sociology, political theory, and technology studies. This approach enriches philosophical discourse and allows for a more nuanced understanding of complex social phenomena. - Critical Engagement with Modernity:
A recurring theme in the journal is the critique of modernity and its consequences. Articles often explore the tensions between technological civilization and human values, as well as the philosophical implications of contemporary societal changes.
Trending and Emerging
- Technology and Ethics:
There is a growing focus on the intersection of technology and ethics, particularly in relation to how technological advancements affect human agency, social relationships, and ethical frameworks. This theme is increasingly relevant in discussions about digital culture and the philosophy of technology. - Solidarity and Collective Ethics:
Recent publications emphasize themes of solidarity and collective ethics, particularly in response to political movements and social justice issues. This trend reflects a broader concern with ethical responses to societal fragmentation and populism. - Global and Contextual Philosophy:
The journal is increasingly addressing philosophical perspectives from a global context, particularly highlighting voices from the Global South. This trend is evident in discussions that connect Latin American philosophical traditions with broader philosophical discourses, enhancing the journal's diversity. - Critical Theory and Social Critique:
There is a notable rise in papers that engage with critical theory, examining power dynamics, social justice, and ethical implications of contemporary societal structures. This trend aligns with a renewed interest in the works of philosophers like Foucault and Habermas.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Metaphysics:
There appears to be a waning interest in traditional metaphysical discussions, such as those surrounding abstract concepts of existence and being. Instead, the journal is increasingly focused on practical and ethical implications of philosophy in contemporary society. - Purely Theoretical Philosophy:
The journal has seen a decline in papers that focus solely on theoretical or analytical philosophy without practical application. There is a noticeable shift towards discussions that connect philosophical ideas with real-world implications and ethical considerations. - Historical Philosophical Figures with Limited Relevance:
While historical figures like Hegel and Kant have traditionally been significant, their direct application in contemporary debates is becoming less frequent. The journal seems to favor more current philosophical dialogues that resonate with contemporary social and ethical issues.
