Philosophy & Public Affairs is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal published by John Wiley & Sons. It publishes philosophical articles on legal, social, and political issues. The journal was established in 1972 under the sponsorship of Princeton University Press. Blackwell (now Wiley) became the journal's publisher in 2004.[1] The current editor-in-chief is Anna Stilz (Princeton University). According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2020 impact factor of 2.000, ranking it 100th out of 183 journals in the category "Political Science" and 20th out of 56 journals in the category "Ethics".[2]

En masse resignations of editors

In May of 2024 the executive, associate, and advisory editors and all of the editorial board members resigned en masse. In a letter to Wiley the outgoing editors and editorial board members stated an intention to launch a new diamond open-access journal to be published by Open Library of Humanities (OLH), with editorial members occupying the same positions they held at Philosophy & Public Affairs.[3]
