Justice as Fairness: Political not Metaphysical on JSTOR

Philosophy & Public Affairs

Description: Issues of public concern often have an important philosophical dimension. Philosophy and Public Affairs is founded in the belief that a philosophical examination of these issues can contribute to their clarification and to their resolution. It welcomes philosophical discussions of substantive legal, social, and political problems, as well as discussions of the more abstract questions to which they give rise. It also intends to publish studies of the moral and intellectual history of such problems. Philosophy and Public Affairs fills the need for a journal in which philosophers with different viewpoints and philosophically inclined writers from various disciplines--including law, political science, economics, and sociology--can bring their distinctive methods to bear on problems that concern everyone.

Coverage: 1971-2011 (Vol. 1, No. 1 - Vol. 39, No. 4)

Moving Wall: 5 years (What is the moving wall?)

The "moving wall" represents the time period between the last issue available in JSTOR and the most recently published issue of a journal. Moving walls are generally represented in years. In rare instances, a publisher has elected to have a "zero" moving wall, so their current issues are available in JSTOR shortly after publication.
Note: In calculating the moving wall, the current year is not counted.
For example, if the current year is 2008 and a journal has a 5 year moving wall, articles from the year 2002 are available.

Terms Related to the Moving Wall: Fixed walls: Journals with no new volumes being added to the archive.; Absorbed: Journals that are combined with another title.; Complete: Journals that are no longer published or that have been combined with another title.
