Introduction
is a non profit organisation interested to divulge an applied, humanist, alternative, critical, and alive philosophy for people through lectures, and audiovisual and printed media mainly in Spanish (More info in the APPLIED PHILOSOPHY´s Manifesto).
We specially welcome papers and manuscripts of books on:
-Applied
Philosophy to problems of health, education, law, society, politics, ecology,
religion, etc.
-Applied
Ethics to daily, social, professional and bussiness problems.
-Bioethics
(Abortion, assisted fertilization, eutanasia, genetic engineering, etc.)
-Skepticism
about paranormal, supernatural and pseudoscientific claims.
and also special topics in History of Philosophy.
No
matter if authors are famous, Peruvian, professional or not. Our goals
are to divulge thinkers of a) other tongues into Spanish, and b) Peruvian
ones (preferible those who have no easy access to publish).
