This journal invites students to engage with topics that are lacking in philosophy curricula.

We also encourage submissions that compare the work of thinkers from aforementioned philosophical traditions with those commonly studied in the discipline (such as Plato, Descartes, Wittgenstein, and others)

  • Indigenous Philosophy
  • Africana Philosophy

Falsafa welcomes submissions on topics pertaining to all areas of philosophy and encourages undergraduates from all universities, majors, and backgrounds to submit philosophical works.
