The Greek Philosophical Review is the scientific journal of The Greek Philosophical Society. Since 1984 it is published regularly, three (3) times per year, being the oldest and the most prominent philosophical journal in Greece. It addresses itself to researchers and thinkers, whether they live in Greece or abroad.
It embraces all philosophical movements and promotes works from philosophy, humanities and social sciences.
Faithful to the principles of intellectual pluralism laid down in the Society's Constitution, its purpose is to unify the philosophical forces in Greece and abroad. Its aspiration is to provide a forum for these forces. For 40 years, the Greek Philosophical Review has been the genuine expression of Greek philosophical thought.
A. Submissions
The Journal accepts scientific papers, short essays, research notes and projects, book reviews and miscellaneous other works.
Papers should range between 6,000 and 10,000 words; short essays should range between 2,000 and 5,000 words in length, and book reviews are normally 2,000 words maximum in length.
Papers (scientific publications) are subject to double blind peer review. This means that the manuscript is sent out anonymously for editorial evaluation (i.e. the author’s name is kept hidden from the two (2) reviewers); likewise the comments of the reviewers are sent back anonymously to the author.

B. Guidance to the authors:
Primary language of the Journal is Greek. Moreover, the Journal also accepts important manuscripts in English and French language.
All works will be originals. The authors are solely responsible for the linguistic form and the content of their work.
Concerning the peer reviewed papers (scientific publications), the first page of the manuscript should contain only the article’s title. This will facilitate the evaluation procedure by the experts.
All works submitted to the editors should be typed double-spaced with wide margins. Authors should keep a copy to check against the printer's proof.
Pages should be consecutively numbered, including pages of footnotes and references. The use of italics is to be indicated by single underlining.
Authors are requested to avoid reliance on specialised symbolic languages when possible.
All submissions should be sent via email. The Journal accepts only files in “word format” (preferably Microsoft Word file: .doc, .docx files).
