Articles should be clearly and concisely
written. They should treat their
subjects in an original and substantive
manner. And they should use the
resources of philosophical thought to help
define, analyze, clarify, or resolve
contemporary problems. We do not
publish book reviews.
Review of Manuscripts and Submission
Guidelines
Articles are blind reviewed by two members
of the Editorial Review Board or by others
chosen by the Editor. The journal is
committed to providing constructive
criticism to authors whether their work is
accepted for publication or not. Our
acceptance rate is 25-30%.
Review of manuscripts will be done in a
timely fashion and authors will be contacted
with a final decision in around 3 months.
Authority for accepting and rejecting
manuscripts rests with the Editor.
Manuscripts should be prepared for blind
review and should be accompanied by a short
abstract. Manuscripts should be
double-spaced, with endnotes and a list of
works cited following the text. Explanatory
notes should be used sparingly; citations
should be made in parentheses (author date).
On matters of style and documentation
consult Chicago Manual of Style and
recent issues of the journal.
Electronic submissions are required.
Send manuscripts as email attachment (in
Word or rtf format) to the Editor at:
afiala@csufresno.edu
