Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews (NDPR) is an online-only peer-reviewed academic journal published by the University of Notre Dame that contains book reviews of books in topics related to philosophy. It was established in 2002. The editors-in-chief are Gary Gutting and Anastasia Friel Gutting.[1]
As of November 2013, the editorial board included a number of eminent philosophers such as Robert Audi, David Chalmers, Brian Leiter, and Paul Moser.[2] After passing away of Gary Gutting in 2019, Anastasia Friel Gutting also announced her resignation, and Jc Beall was named the new editor.[3] In June, 2021 editorship turned over to Christopher Shields.[4]
The reviews are typically 1,500 to 2,500 words in length. The website states that its goal is to publish a book review of any major scholarly philosophical book within six to twelve months of the book’s publication. Reviews are commissioned and vetted by the Editorial Board. Only newly released books and anthologies are reviewed, not reprints or new editions unless they contain substantial new material.[1]
The journal is published electronically (online) only. In addition to browsing the website for free, people can also subscribe for free via email or RSS. Any material appearing in the journal may be copied for educational use provided proper credit is given to the author and the journal.[1]
In 2007, philosopher Brian Leiter (who was and still is on the editorial board) wrote on his blog, Leiter Reports: “I want to start by saying that Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews is a wonderful resource, for which the whole profession is indebted to Gary Gutting who runs it so well.” He then went on to criticize one of the reviews that appeared on the site.[5] In 2012, the blog Philosophers Anonymous criticized the journal for publishing low-quality reviews.[6]
Publication decline
[edit]
In March, 2024 Daily Nous reported a decline in the number of book reviews published by NDPR. In 2023 the journal published only 65 book reviews, which was a significant drop compared to the 2006-2019 period (i.e. during Gutting’s editorship), during which NDPR from 250 to 426 reviews annually.[7] Brian Leiter mainly noted lack of “course relief” for the new editors as the main cause of the decline, however, Christopher Shields in response, while acknowledging time and budget constraints, said that the journal has the capacity to annually publish 120 reviews, though the lack of enough submissions as the main cause of the decline.[8] In response a month later NDPR announced that it welcomes and will accept “proposals for reviews“ to reverse the declining trend.[9]
