Journal of Applied Philosophy is the leading international forum for philosophical writing which makes a constructive contribution to problems of practical concern. It espouses no particular philosophical 'school', understands 'philosophy' to encompass all areas of the subject, and welcomes high-quality submissions that fit within its broad remit. This includes discussions of the very idea of 'applying' philosophy.

Journal of Applied Philosophy thus covers a very broad spectrum of issues in economics, education, environment, law, medicine, personal relations, philosophical methodology, psychology, politics, and science.
