An Interdisciplinary-International Quarterly of Concerned Philosophers and Scientists for Social Action.

(Founded : 1975)

Statement of Purpose

 

Issues of social concern often have an important philosophical dimension and yet most often they are ignored by philosophers and scientists. PHILOSOPHY and SOCIAL ACTION is founded in the belief that a philosophical examination can contribute to their clarification and lead to right action. It will encourage philosophical discussion of substantive socio-economic, scientific, political and legal problems as well as discussion of their theoretical and practical aspects.


The editorial policy also welcomes interdisciplinary discussion of socio-political issues and problems and invites philosophically inclined writers from various disciplines, including physics, astronomy, economics, social sciences, literature and linguistics to contribute and thereby bring their distinctive studies and methods to bear upon issues and problems that concern humankind in general and the peoples of India and Third World nations in particular.
