Process Studies
DETAILS
About
Process Studies is a peer-reviewed and refereed academic journal from the Center for Process Studies at Claremont Graduate University. It is the leading international journal in its field, with issues published twice a year. Process Studies is dedicated to the study of the thought and wide-ranging implications of Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947) and his intellectual associates, most notably Charles E. Hartshorne (1897–2000), and others like William James (1842–1910), Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914), and Henri Bergson (1859–1941). The mandate of Process Studies is to explore Whiteheadian-Hartshornean process thought at an advanced level and as it appears in related philosophies and theologies (as noted above), applying the Whiteheadian-Hartshornean conceptuality to a wide range of other fields: aesthetics, biology, cosmology, economics, education theory, ethics, history of religions, literary criticism, mathematics, political thought, psychology, physics and other natural sciences, the social sciences, sociology, psychology, Christian theology, and Eastern religions.

Submissions
Process Studies
Manuscript submissions should be 6,000-8,000 words in length, including references and notes. Submissions should be typed, double-spaced, and sent by email attachment to the editor, Dr. Daniel A. Dombrowski, at ddombrow@seattleu.edu. Submissions must conform to the style guidelines at https://www.pdcnet.org/process/Submission-Guidelines.
Peer Review Policy: An initial review of the article is completed by the editor, after which two anonymous readers are assigned by the editor. Readers are selected for their area of expertise, which sometimes means selecting external reviewers and sometimes reviewers are on the editorial board. Because the review process is double blind, the journal avoids conflicts of interest to the greatest extent possible.
