Article
Articles, of approximately 8,000 words in length (maximum), excluding notes and references, that succinctly make an original contribution by presenting an interesting or unique perspective, argument, solution, or critical discussion of a particular problem or question in the area of philosophy of emotion. The JPE will also consider and publish lengthier manuscripts (10,000 words max, excluding notes and references) on a double-anonymized, case-by-case basis, and only if it is absolutely necessary to do so. We, however, recommend that authors try to keep their manuscripts at 8,000 words.
Full-length article commentaries, of approximately 8,000 words in length (maximum), excluding notes and references, discussing arguments published in the JPE, and which demonstrate expertise in relevant areas of research and make an original contribution to the area of philosophy of emotion are also welcomed. The JPE does not publish shorter article commentaries, except as part of a symposium, due to our extensive double-anonymous review process.
Please also make sure to provide an abstract of approximately 150 words in length (maximum) with your manuscript submission, regardless of whether it is an article or article commentary.
Symposium

Book Review
Book Reviews of approximately 3,000 words in length (maximum), excluding notes and references, of any book that would be relevant to those pursuing research, including interdisciplinary research, in the area of philosophy of emotion. Although the JPE does not wish to place any stylistic or content restrictions on book reviews, we ask that book review authors highlight the significance of the contents of the book for our readers, and especially the relevance of the contents to the interests of philosophers of emotion.
