About the Journal
Focus and Scope
The Journal of Modern and Contemporary Philosophy (JMCP) is an open-access online journal, published three times a year - since 2013 - by the Department of Philosophy and the Graduate Program in Philosophy of the University of Brasilia (UnB). The JMCP aims to publish original scholar articles from all fields of philosophical inquiry, focused on the interpretation of the assumptions and developments of the modern tradition, and the current debates of philosophy. In this sense, studies in the history of philosophy are welcome, as well as articles on ongoing philosophical discussions in the contemporary world, linked either to continental, analytical, non-Western currents or to comparative perspectives. It also publishes reviews of recently released philosophy books, and translations of articles or essays of notorious philosophical relevance. All articles are submitted to the double-blind review process. It only accepts contributions written in Portuguese, Spanish, English, French, Italian or German, from authors that hold a Ph.D. or M.A.
The authors will not be asked to pay any costs related to the submission or processing of their works.
The contents of the texts published by the Revista de Filosofia Moderna e Contemporânea are the sole responsibility of their respective authors and do not necessarily express the opinions of their editors.
