N – Estudios de Filosofía Seeking Submissions on: The open borders of pragmatism

August 30, 2025 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

CFP: The open borders of pragmatism

Three figures of classical pragmatism are usually recognized: Charles S. Peirce, William James and John Dewey; however, pragmatism is not restricted to them or to that period and place (late nineteenth century in the United States of North America). Thanks to the impulse given by these three classic pragmatists, among whom it would also be necessary to include thinkers such as Jane Addams, this philosophical tradition has spread to other parts of the world thanks to its great plurality and valuation of experience. This is why pragmatism has not been limited to the discussion of the issues raised by its founders, but has managed to articulate itself with different philosophical aspects and branches of knowledge, such as education, art, semiotics, biology, ethics, politics, logic, ecology or mathematics, among others, and promises to offer us more possibilities of conversation to illuminate our present and future. This issue aims to make visible all these possible conversations and encounters from philosophy with other inter- and transdisciplinary perspectives. Proposals may be related, but not limited, to the following topics:

● Under-recognized pragmatist authors

● Applications of pragmatism in different fields such as logic, mathematics, epistemology, ethics, politics, gender studies, feminism, education, ecology, theories of cognition, sports, etc.

● Contemporary critiques and debates on pragmatism

● New interpretations, challenges and perspectives of pragmatism.

● Conversations of pragmatism with other philosophical trends or traditions.

Deadline: August 30th, 2025. Publication date: June 30th, 2026

Author Guidelines

Authors are required to register on the Estudios de Filosofía website before beginning the submission process. If you are already registered as an author, just log in to submit your paper through five steps. Be sure to comply with the manuscript preparation guide as shown below, and also read the copyright notice.
Estudios de Filosofía has adopted the APA Style (Seventh Edition) as the standard citation system for our papers. Helpful information may be found in APA Reference Style.
There is no publishing or article processing charge (APC).
The journal cannot consider more than one paper at a time from any one author, whether as the author or as co-author. So, until a final decision to publish or reject has been made on one paper, its author(s) will not be eligible to submit another paper for consideration.
The journal only accepts manuscripts from authors who have a Ph.D. or master degree.
Introduction
All manuscripts will undergo an initial review with an anti-plagiarism tool. Once confirmed with the anti-plagiarism report that the text meets the originality requirements, it will be submitted for initial review by the Journal Editor and the Editorial Committee to determine that it is appropriate to the journal’s theme, scope, objective, and editorial guidelines. If the anti-plagiarism percentage reaches 30% self-reference, the text will be rejected.
Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in order to improve the readability of the texts, but in no case to produce manuscripts. AI can produce content that is incorrect, false, biased, or even appropriate original work from another author without proper citation. Without pretending to ignore technological advances, this journal reiterates its commitment to the production of new knowledge, the authenticity of documents submitted to editorial processes, academic curatorship, integrity, and ethics in research and publication. Thus, Estudios de Filosofía will reject articles in which the indiscriminate use of AI is detected.
Once the manuscript is accepted for editorial consideration by the journal, it will undergo double-blind peer review to determine its potential publication. The author might be required to review the manuscript before publication, yet the right to refuse publication of articles is restricted to the editor or the director. All manuscripts must be submitted in MS Word 2003-2010 or .docx. The following information is suggested as a guide for organizing your submission.

All authors must attach, in addition to the paper, a message for the editor with a brief biography, including their studies, their institutional affiliation, and their lines of work and research.
