Phenomenal World is a publication managed by staff of the Jain Family Institute, focused on theory and commentary across the social sciences. The content published here does not necessarily reflect the views of the Jain Family Institute.
We welcome submissions on our main topics (digital ethics, guaranteed income, higher education finance), or any topic in the social sciences, philosophy, economic history, metaresearch, and kindred fields. We have extremely wide-ranging interests, so please get in touch. Email editorial@jainfamilyinstitute.org.
Besides the weekly JFI Sources, we have a Phenomenal World-specific newsletter that will update you whenever we publish a new post. Sign up for the PW newsletter here.
