Job description

The Blog of the American Philosophical Association seeks series editors for the following series:

Teaching and Learning Video Series

This series  features tools for teaching philosophy through videos – especially funny ones.

APA Member Interview Series

This series profiles APA members.  The interview series spotlights what captures their interest not only inside the office but also outside it.

Women in Philosophy Series

This series informs people throughout the field of philosophy about new ideas relevant to the study of gender, publicizes events of interest to people involved in such studies, and serves as a place of dialogue for people seeking a better understanding of gender.

Reports from Abroad

This series features reflections from APA members researching or studying ‘non-eurocentric’ philosophy ‘abroad.  It explores how local institutions and global contexts shape the possibilities of research, speech, and our visions of philosophy; and seeks to complicate immediate conceptions of ‘abroad’ given our globalized world.

Navigating (Living) Philosophy

This series invites seasoned philosophers to share critical reflections on emergent and institutionalized shapes of and encounters within philosophy.  The series collects experience-based explorations of philosophy’s personal, institutional, and disciplinary evolution that will also help young academics and students navigate philosophy today.

Everyday Lifestyle Series

The Everyday Lifestyle Series of the Public Philosophy beat shares philosophical blog articles on topics such as food, vacation, and hobbies.
