About the Journal

HASER is a journal for unpublished and original academic and professional research focusing on the basics and activities of philosophical practice. This discipline includes all those activities that, grounded in a comprehensive knowledge of the history of philosophy, socially help individuals and groups to develop critical skills and to gain a deeper ontological and experiential understanding of themselves, following the famous Greek aphorism, “Know thyself.” In this connection, a philosophical practice without a solid and justified basis would be inconsistent and insubstantial, while its achievements would be unreliable. By the same token, a reflective theory far removed from its practical use runs the risk of becoming embroiled in soliloquies and abstractions that, although they serve certain purposes, have little to do with philosophical practice.

 

HASER only accepts research that meets formal and rigorous academic standards, plus those of minimum content, for forming part of the corpus of philosophical practice.  

HASER is indexed in ISI THOMPSON-Clarivate, Scopus, ERIH PLUS (European Research Index for Humanities), EBSCO, Latindex (meeting all the 33 academic quality criteria), the Philosopher’s Index, the Norwegian System for Scientific Journals (Level 1) ISOC-CSIC, the Philosophy Documentation Center (International Directory of Philosophy), MIAR (ICDS: 7.5), Conacyt (Level 1), CIRC (Level B), DIALNET (University of La Rioja) and REBIUN (Red de Bibliotecas Universitarias – Conferencia de Rectores de las Universidades Españolas). It has also received an invitation to form part of Elsevier. This number of the journal has been funded by the Department of Metaphysics and Contemporary Currents of Philosophy, Ethics and Political Philosophy.
