Articles

Academic articles (4,000–8,000 words, including a 150 word abstract and references; longer pieces may be accepted if exceptional): submissions in the form of an original article or a critical survey whose subject falls within one or more of the research domains covered by the Journal. Please see below for specific requirements for Organization and Style.

Critical Comments

Critical comments (2,000–4,000 words): submissions will take the form of a focused response to an article, not necessarily published in the Journal. Comments should be written in such a way that they can be understood independently of the original article and in a style in keeping with the standards and ethos of scholarly debate. We are particularly interested in comments by philosophers on recent or classical economic papers and by economists on recent or classical philosophical papers. We are also open to short incisive pieces on ethical issues within the disciplines of philosophy and/or economics.

Into the Archives

Into the Archives (an archival text together with an accompanying academic article): this submission has a 'paired format' and consists of two texts. Namely: (1) an (annotated) translation of an archival article previously unavailable in English or an (annotated) previously unpublished manuscript written in the English language; and (2) a research article of standard length (4,000–8,000 words) that either introduces the (translated) archival text in its wider historical and intellectual context or that uses it to advance a novel—for example, philosophical, historical, or methodological—argument contributing to the relevant contemporary literature. Authors can contact the editors with proposals for this section; please include information about (1) the respective archival text; (2) (in case of translations) the ability of the author(s) to translate the text; (3) and a brief summary of the main argument or idea of the accompanying research article.

Book Reviews

Book reviews (1,000–2,000 words): submissions should not be entitled except for complete bibliographical details of the work reviewed. Unsolicited book reviews will only be considered if the book falls clearly within the Journal's research domains and has been recently published (in the preceding 12–18 months). Book review essays, for example a thematic analysis of several books, will be considered as articles.

PhD Thesis Summaries

PhD thesis summaries (500–1,000 words): authors must have completed formal PhD graduation within the preceding 12 months with a thesis that clearly falls within the research interests of the Journal. Submissions should include the complete name of the author, full title of the thesis, (language of the thesis, if not English), official name of the University and academic department, date of thesis defence, and names and affiliations of the thesis supervisors.
