Cogito aims to help those throughout the world
who seek an introduction to central philosophical issues in a
way that avoids the extremes of obfuscating jargon and elusive
vagueness. The journal pursues what from the earliest times was
perceived as one of the main tasks of philosophy, viz, that it
should fulfil an educational role by fostering an inquiring temperament,
by encouraging sceptical re-examination of accepted ideas and
by promoting dialogue. Cogito publishes papers in all areas of philosophy
and welcomes contributions that link philosophy to other areas
of study and practice. Interviews with distinguished philosophers,
articles on philosophy in schools and universities, reviews of
literature, philosophy news, logical puzzles and letters are all
regular features. Cogito is the official publication of the Cogito
Society. |
