AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL ASSOCIATION- APA report on the state of the profession now available.

 

Dear DAVID,   The APA’s new report on academic philosophy, State of the Profession 1967–2017 and Beyond: Institutions and Faculty, is now available. The report was prepared by Debra Nails and John Davenport of the APA data task force.   The report synthesizes data from the Philosophy Documentation Center (PDC) and the APA to create a more comprehensive picture of the profession of academic philosophy. It provides more detail on the state of the profession than has previously been available, including more specific information on gender, institutional types and affiliations, and regional differences among philosophy programs.   Our hope is that the report will provide philosophy departments and institutions a clearer and more comprehensive long-term view of the makeup of philosophy programs in America, which may in turn provide insight upon which to base departmental and institutional decision-making.   Download the State of the Profession report.   I hope you will find the State of the Profession report to be a helpful resource and encourage you to share and discuss it with your colleagues and administrators.   All the best,   Amy Ferrer Executive Director
