Focus and Scope
Budhi: A Journal of Ideas and Culture is devoted to the practice of philosophy in its interdisciplinary engagements with art, culture, history, religion, technology, and the social sciences. It seeks to provide an arena for exchanges between mainstream traditions and work from the geopolitical margins, particularly from the local history and culture of the Philippines. Budhi therefore crosses geographical borders as well as intellectual boundaries within philosophy and within the humanities and the social sciences.
Budhi would be of interest to readers working in philosophy, cultural studies, critical theory, postmodernity, aesthetics, applied ethics, gender studies, migration studies, society and technology, the intersection of ethics and the social sciences, and public policy.
