Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submission file is in .DOC or .DOCX format.
  • The text is double-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.

Author Guidelines

Philosophiques only accepts submissions in French.

For references, all texts must respect the Chicago manual of style norms following the "classical" method, using footnotes, without bibliography at the end of the text. For a guide on this style and its adaptation to the francophone context, please consult this Webpage: https://bib.umontreal.ca/citer/styles-bibliographiques/chicago?tab=5241950.

Philosophiques asks that the texts respect the directives de l’Office québécois de la langue française sur la rédaction épicène et la féminisation des textes.

With the exception of reviews, all manuscripts submitted to Philosophiques are reviewd by two experts. The evaluation period does not normally go over three months.

The reviewers reports are forwarded the authors, preserving the anonimity of experts.

Once a paper is accepted, the author must send a final version respecting the norms of the journal. A paper that would imply too much editing or reviewing of the form, even if presenting high quality content, will not be published.

Every author receives a paper copy of the issue where the article is published.

"Disputatios" are dossiers presenting a philosophical discussion on a recent book. They are constituted of a précis, by its author, of the the book discussed (4,000 words), three to five critical commentaries by peers (6,000 words) and a response of the author to these commentaries (8,000 words).

Please contact the editor before submitting such a dossier to Philosophiques.

Thematic dossier

Thematic dossiers regroup articles on the same theme and are edited, coordinated and introduced by one or more person external to the editorial committee. Articles that compose the dossier must respect the same regulations and are evaluated as articles that are submitted individually.

Articles do not exceed 75,000 signs (spaces included), and aim at discussing, explain, defend and/or submit to critical examination specific philosophical arguments or doctrines.
