Philosophers Imprint is not just an academic publishing platform; it is also an active proponent of the open access movement in the field of philosophy. Founded by the distinguished philosophers Stephen Darwall and J. David Velleman, its underlying philosophy is to break down the barriers of traditional academic publishing, allowing more people to access high-quality philosophical research without obstacles. The support of Michigan Publishing at the University of Michigan provides a solid foundation for this vision.
The editorial team of this series is composed of philosophers who have undergone rigorous analytical training. They embrace works from different philosophical schools and research areas with an open mind, ensuring the diversity and depth of the content. The target of Philosophers Imprint is to serve academic philosophers and students, and at the same time, it opens its doors to a wide range of non-academic readers, allowing them to easily access the essence of philosophy and stimulate their thinking and interest in philosophy. In this way, it not only promotes the widespread dissemination of academic achievements but also contributes to the popularization and education of philosophy.
