Lokāyata: Journal of Positive Philosophy (ISSN 2249-8389)
Respected Faculty/Scholar,
I would like to invite all academicians from all disciplines to contribute research papers and articles for our journal. Lokāyata: Journal of Positive Philosophy (ISSN 2249-8389) is a bi-annual an online interdisciplinary journal of the Center for Positive Philosophy and Interdisciplinary Studies (CPPIS). The name Lokāyata can be traced to Kautilya's Arthashastra, which refers to three ānvīkṣikīs (logical philosophies), Yoga, Samkhya and Lokāyata. Lokāyata here still refers to logical debate (disputatio, "criticism") in general and not to a materialist doctrine in particular. The objectives of the journal are to encourage new thinking on concepts and theoretical frameworks in the disciplines of humanities and social sciences to disseminate such new ideas and research papers (with strong emphasis on modern implications of philosophy) which have broad relevance in society in general and man’s life in particular. The Centre will publish two issues of the journal every year. Each regular issue of the journal will contain full-length papers, discussions and comments, book reviews, information on new books and other relevant academic information. Each issue contains about 100 pages.
Theme: RESEARCH METHODOLOGY IN PHILOSOPHY
Proposed Contents:
• Nature of Philosophy
• Problems of Philosophy
• Methods of Philosophy
• Reading Philosophy
• Writing Philosophy
• Argument Formation
• Research Tools
• Reference Style
• Doing Philosophy
• Suggested Readings
Last date for paper submission: 31st August, 2013
