Journal of Applied Philosophy

The Journal of Applied Philosophy (JOAP) is a peer-reviewed academic journal published by Wiley-Blackwell on behalf of the Society for Applied Philosophy and co-edited by Avery Kolers (University of Louisville) and Tina Rulli (University of California, Davis).

It covers a broad spectrum of issues in all areas of applied philosophy, including work on the environment, medicine, science, engineering, policy, law, politics, economics, and education.

[1] The Journal of Applied Philosophy awards an annual prize of £1,000 to the best article published in the year's volume.

[3] In 2023, JOAP announced a new prize in honor of the late Charles W. Mills, who had served as an editorial board member of the Journal.

The Prize, in the amount of £1,500, is awarded annually for an outstanding paper published in the journal in the spirit, and on the themes, of Mills’ work, including racial injustice, philosophy of race, non-ideal theory, and ideology.
