The aim of Res Practica is to create a space for fruitful exchange between experts from a variety of disciplines whose work focuses on, or has implications for, ethical, political, and more broadly normative questions. One important goal is to further our understanding of practical problems that confront both individuals and societies by uncovering philosophical assumptions often left implicit. Another goal is to encourage exploration of innovative solutions to normative dilemmas that confront individuals and societies, in order to provide original and informed ethical guidelines and public policies. Res Practica will invite authors to reach across traditional disciplinary divides, and to explore the multiple ways in which experts from a variety of academic disciplines, including but not restricted to moral and political philosophy, applied ethics, political sciences, and law, can cast mutually enriching light upon pressing practical questions. Res Practica is also committed to promoting exchanges between experts writing in different languages. While we will begin with English and French, we hope, over time, to broaden the range of linguistic traditions that can find a home in our pages.
