Journal of Comparative and Continental Philosophy

Call for Submissions

Editor: David Jones, Kennesaw State University
Associate Editors:Michael Schwartz, Augusta State University
Jason Wirth, Seattle University
Review Editor: Jason Wirth

Comparative and Continental Philosophy is a peer-reviewed and fully refereed journal that appears bi-annually and publishes leading edge papers by internationally respected scholars in comparative and continental philosophy. Sponsored by the Comparative and Continental Philosophy Circle (www.comcontphilosophy.org), Comparative and Continental Philosophy is a seriously minded, yet interesting, academic journal that is accessible to a wide range of readers from various disciplines such as philosophy, religion, art history, comparative literature, critical theory, phenomenological psychology, and cultural theory. Although anchored in the discipline of philosophy and designed to provide a much needed niche in the natural development of continental philosophy into other nonwestern ways of thinking, submissions are welcomed from other disciplines as well and need not be necessarily comparative in nature. For comparative submissions, Asia is our primary focus, but we welcome papers devoted to any non-western region, especially Africa, and comparative continental and Anglo-American philosophy. The Journal also includes papers on critical spirituality that discuss inter-cultural encounters and address understanding through meditative thinking and papers on contemporary feminism.

In general, the editorial board of Comparative and Continental Philosophy takes seriously a broad array of contemporary engagements with texts that open discussions and welcomes innovative submissions from authors.

Continental and Comparative Philosophy Book Series

The continental and comparative philosophy circle is pleased to announce its new book series. With the exception of our first book, this series will be published by Equinox Publishing in London. The Series is seeks high quality manuscripts on any aspect of Comparative philosophy, Continental philosophy, and/or bridges between them. In addition, the Series is dedicated to publishing books from other disciplines such as philosophy, religion, art history, comparative literature, critical theory, phenomenological psychology, and cultural theory. Although anchored in the discipline of philosophy and designed to provide a much needed niche in the natural development of continental philosophy into other nonwestern ways of thinking, manuscripts are also welcomed from other disciplines as well and need not be comparative in nature. For comparative submissions, Asia remains our primary focus, but we welcome manuscripts devoted to any non-western region, especially Africa, and comparative continental and Anglo-American philosophy. Additionally, the Series welcomes manuscripts on critical spirituality that examine inter-cultural encounters and address understanding through meditative thinking and manuscripts on contemporary feminism, especially from comparative and continental perspectives.

The first book in the series is The Gift of Logos: Essays in Continental Philosophy, edited by David Jones, Jason Wirth, and Michael Schwartz and has been publication by Cambridge Scholars Press in 2010. This volume features distinguished as well as rising scholars from across the U.S. and Europe who combine their talents in organizing essays of thematic and topical scholarly content of contemporary relevance in Continental Philosophy. The major focus of this volume aims at the relevance of Continental Philosophy’s project for contemporary living and philosophizing by providing clusters of papers that display contemporary relevance. Authors include: Michael Schwartz, Jason M. Wirth, Brian Schroeder, David Jones, Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback, Ronald Bogue, Michael Smith, Duane Davis, Bret T. Davis, and Thomas R. Flynn. This volume commemorates a passion for Continental philosophy and its repercussions. The work of the authors is born from a commitment to the Continental idiom and how it has branched out in many directions.
