Oxford Studies in Political Philosophy

Since its revival in the 1970s political philosophy has been a vibrant field in philosophy, one that intersects with jurisprudence, normative economics, political theory in political science departments, and just war theory. Oxford Studies in Political Philosophy aims to publish some of the best contemporary work in political philosophy and these closely related subfields.

Each year there is a workshop associated with a corresponding volume in Oxford Studies in Political Philosophy

Submission Details:

We invite submissions of full papers of between 7,000 and 12,000 words, including footnotes. An abstract should be included at the beginning of the paper. Papers and abstracts must be fully anonymized to be considered.

Papers from junior scholars will be considered for the 2027 Marc Sanders Prize in Political Philosophy.

A limited amount of hardship funds will be eligible to cover some of the expenses for scholars who are invited to present at the workshop and do not have funding from their home institutions.

A selection of papers from the Workshop will be published in volume 14 of Oxford Studies in Political Philosophy.
