Call for Publications Theme: Comparative Philosophy Publication: Confluence: Online Journal of World Philosophies Date: No. 2 (March 2015) Deadline: 31.10.2014 __________________________________________________ >From Monika Kirloskar <[email protected]> Confluence: Online Journal of World Philosophies (Karl Alber Verlag, Freiburg/Munich, Germany) is a bi-annual, peer-reviewed, international journal dedicated to comparative thought. It seeks to explore common spaces and differences between philosophical traditions in a global context. Without postulating cultures as monolithic, homogenous, or segregated wholes, it aspires to address key philosophical issues which bear on specific methodological, epistemological, hermeneutic, ethical, social, and political questions in comparative thought. Confluence aims to develop the contours of a philosophical understanding not subservient to dominant paradigms and provide a platform for diverse philosophical voices, including those long silenced by dominant academic discourses and institutions. Confluence also endeavors to serve as a juncture where specific philosophical issues of global interest may be explored in an imaginative, thought-provoking, and pioneering way. The journal seeks submissions on all relevant aspects of comparative philosophy. We, the editors, welcome innovative and persuasive ways of conceptualizing, articulating, and representing intercultural encounters. Contributions (articles, book-reviews, survey articles, critical notes) should be able to facilitate the development of new perspectives on current global thought-processes and sketch the outlines of salient future developments. Papers should not exceed a word-count of 6250 words. They should be submitted by 31st October 2014 under: [email protected] We adopt a double blind reviewing policy, thus ensuring that the identities of both the author and the referees are not revealed during the process. When submitting your article, please ensure that your full name and address (including e-mail address), your institutional affiliation, five to ten keywords, and an abstract appear on a separate page. Your name should not appear on any page; references to your own work should not reveal your identity.
