Starting June 1st, the Journal of Philosophy of Disability (JPD) will begin accepting submissions. The JPD is a new peer-reviewed journal dedicated to questions regarding disability, broadly construed, and it is the first of its kind. Edited by Joel Michael Reynolds (Georgetown University) and Teresa Blankmeyer Burke (Gallaudet University), the journal will publish peer-reviewed articles, review essays, critical responses, and commentaries, as well as occasional topical clusters and symposia.
The editors welcome scholarship from all philosophical perspectives, including analytic, continental, and pragmatist traditions, the history of philosophy, empirically informed philosophy, non-Western philosophy, and other traditions and fields that substantively engage research in philosophy of disability. The JPD will be published fully open-access by the Philosophy Documentation Center with assistance from Georgetown University. The JPD supports and is also supported by the Society for Philosophy and Disability.
Please send your submissions to jphildisability@gmail.com. Authors will include Eva Feder Kittay, Jürgen Habermas, Havi Carel, Leslie Francis, Kim Q. Hall, Adam Cureton, Andrea Pitts, Desiree Valentine, Joseph Stramondo, Kevin Timpe, David Wasserman, Melinda Hall, Chris Kaposy, Licia Carlson, and Christine Wieseler.
