Aims & Scope

The Australasian Journal of Philosophy ( AJP ) is one of the world's leading philosophy journals. It is recognised as publishing some of the very best work in the analytic tradition, but is not narrow in what it regards as worthy of acceptance. Heavily cited in the general philosophical literature, it is covered by the major abstracting and indexing services. We also publish book reviews, with a particular but not exclusive focus on authors connected with Australasian philosophy .
