International Directory of Philosophy and Philosophers,
Directory of American Philosophers
The Philosophy Documentation Center publishes the International Directory of Philosophy and Philosophers and the Directory of American Philosophers, essential reference works that list information on university philosophy departments and programs, philosophical societies, associations, research centers and institutes, journals, and philosophy publishers around the world.
The International Directory of Philosophy and Philosophers was established in 1965 with the support of UNESCO, and is the only edited survey of philosophical activity in Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, and Latin America. The Directory of American Philosophers is the standard reference work for information about philosophical activity in the United States and Canada. Together these works provide edited information for over 26,000 philosophers in 137 countries, as well as each philosopher's primary subject specialties. These volumes also include listings for thousands of philosophy departments, centers, societies, journals, and publishers. All listings are free and can be updated below. Much of the information in these directories is not available online or from some other edited source, and we need your help and cooperation to keep it up to date.
