Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Continental theory has a chequered history in academia. Recently, however, as scholars of the new materialism refocus on tensions between modernist and post modernist concepts and questions, Continental theory has had a resurgence. The intellectual world today is facing social and ontological problems and issues—including increasingly, the function of the academy—which strongly suggest that new kinds of questions, critiques, debates and responses are crucial to the relevance and interrogation of Continental theory in the 21st century. Continental Thought and Theory emerges from the Canterbury School of Continental Philosophy (University of Canterbury, New Zealand) and responds to this need for international critical engagement. The journal is open access and combine special issues with calls for papers.
