Plí: The Warwick Journal of Philosophy (ISSN: 1367-3769) is an open access, non-fee charging (diamond), peer-reviewed journal of philosophy edited and produced by members of the Graduate School of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Warwick, and associated contributors.
Plí has no specific set of philosophical concerns, but previous issues have focused on European philosophical traditions, especially Continental Philosophy, reflecting the interests of the graduate community at Warwick.
In particular, Plí has also published translations of works otherwise unavailable in English by philosophers including Éric Alliez, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, François Laruelle, Jean-François Lyotard, Jean-Luc Nancy, and Friedrich Nietzsche. A number of these have been prompted by visits of philosophers to Warwick, including Derrida and, more recently, Alliez, Badiou, and Laruelle.
Authors are permitted and encouraged to post their work online (e.g., in institutional repositories or on their website) before and during the submission process, as it can lead to productive exchanges, as well as earlier and greater citation of published work.
As a well-established journal with historical significance in the British philosophical scene, Plí has built a strong, diverse, international, and transdisciplinary Advisory Board, with professors from several countries such as France, Brazil, the USA, Argentina, Italy, Mozambique, Poland, the Netherlands, Australia, Mexico, the Czech Republic, Cape Verde, Canada, and others.
Before submitting to Plí, please make sure to read the Notes to Contributors.
Finally, starting in 2024, papers published by Plí will also have a small commentary available on Pharos. - University of Warwick's Philosophy Magazine.
