AJP aims to understand and explain the relationship between philosophy and life and to produce international scientific publications that will discuss how life and thought have influenced each other throughout history.
The Journal of Anatolian Philosophy (AJP) is an academic journal that aims to publish original and qualified articles, interviews, discussions and papers based on scientific research in philosophy.
Having started its publication by adopting the idea that “Experiences are the premises of thoughts”, AJP sees philosophy as an activity intertwined with life. Even though in philosophy, metaphysics or utopian thoughts that transcend reality have been put forward with speculation based on reason, these thoughts are ultimately based on the philosophers’ life experiences and observations. Therefore, although philosophical thought sometimes transcends reality in a speculative and abstract way, it ultimately originates from the reality and authenticity of life. However, philosophical thought is also an attempt to organize and shape life.
Although it is transcendent to reality, it somehow affects the reality of life. In this context, the journal aims to publish studies revealing how life and thought have influenced each other throughout history. In this context, articles that show the relationship between a philosopher's thoughts and life and experience, that reveal the effects or possible effects of a philosopher's thoughts on life (the period in which he lived or today), that discuss different ideas developed on a problem and the effects of these ideas on the problem will be accepted for evaluation. The journal will include original research articles, critiques, interviews, unpublished papers, and translations prepared for this purpose and scope.
The studies sent to the journal must be prepared according to the purpose, scope, and content specified below.
Studies discuss how philosophical accumulation will contribute to understanding and solving current problems. In other words, studies discussing thoughts caused by a reality or realities shaped by thoughts.
Studies explain the relationship between a philosopher's thought and historical, social, economic, etc., conditions that shape his thought.
Studies discuss the contributions a philosopher has made or will potentially cause to the understanding and solving various problems in education, culture, justice, ethics, etc. or the reality shaped and influenced by his thoughts.
Studies discussing the philosophical thought necessary for understanding and solving current problems.
Studies discussing the problems that will arise in the future under the guidance of philosophical thought.
Studies introducing new original thoughts caused by problems specific to the era or region.
The purpose of the study to be handled in line with the specified themes should be clearly stated both in the abstract and in the introduction of the study. After that, according to the way the subject is handled, this purpose should be discussed by justifying it in the development section and the conclusion section.
Studies in which only theoretical ideas are discussed and do not consider the intertwining of life and thought will not be evaluated.
