Aims & Scope

Promoting academic literacy on non-Western traditions of philosophy, Philosophy East and West has for more than seventy years published the highest-quality scholarship that locates these cultures in their relationship to Anglo-American philosophy. Philosophy defined in its relationship to cultural traditions broadly integrates the professional discipline with literature, science, and social practices. Each issue includes debates on issues of contemporary concern and critical reviews of the most recent publications.
