CFP: Stance: an international undergraduate philosophy journal

Call for Papers, Undergraduate Philosophy Research

Deadline: Dec. 17, 2021

STANCE: an international undergraduate philosophy journal is accepting original philosophical essays authored by current undergraduates. We welcome manuscripts between 1500 and 3500 words (footnotes may extend word limit by 500) concerning any philosophical topic. Please, only one submission per authors. Papers should avoid unnecessary technicality and strive to be accessible to the widest possible audience without sacrificing clarity or rigor.

Manuscripts are evaluated on the following criteria: depth of inquiry, quality of research/academic rigor, creativity, lucidity, struggle, significance, and, most importantly, originality. The last three – significance, struggle, and originality are most important. The journal is called Stance because we publish only work that contains original argumentation, work where an author takes a stand. Largely exegetical work, even excellent exegetical work, will not be accepted.

Submission Information

Submit at https://openjournals.bsu.edu/stance.

Format

Manuscripts should be  

• In Microsoft Word format (and especially not pdf format)

• Double-spaced (including quotations, excerpts, and footnotes)

• Prepared for anonymous review, and thus have no material that would allow reviewers to know the identity of the author.

Footnotes should follow Chicago Manual of Style. A style sheet with examples is available on our website.

Please use American spellings and punctuation, except when directly quoting a source that follows another style.
