  • A new Diamond Open Access journal: Philosophical Logic

    All Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors of the Journal of Philosophical Logic, currently published by Springer Nature, have informed Springer Nature of their resignation. Today marks the launch of a new Diamond Open Access journal, Philosophical Logic (https://www.philosophical-logic.org), with the same editors and associate editors that used to be on the Journal of Philosophical Logic. The new journal is published by the Open Library of Humanities (OLH) (https://www.openlibhums.org) and not affiliated with Springer Nature or the Journal of Philosophical Logic published by Springer Nature. 

     

    Philosophical Logic welcomes original research in all areas of philosophical logic. The new journal will maintain the same high editorial standards that we upheld at the Journal of Philosophical Logic. In our view, hiring and promotion committees should regard publication in Philosophical Logic as no less significant than publication in the Journal of Philosophical Logic was before.
