The Journal of Philosophy of Disability is a scholarly publication that examines questions of disability, broadly construed. It includes peer-reviewed articles, book reviews, critical responses, commentaries, and occasional symposia and special issues. The editors welcome scholarship from all philosophical perspectives, including analytic, continental, and pragmatist traditions, the history of philosophy, empirically informed philosophy, non-Western philosophy, feminist philosophy, philosophy of race, and other traditions and fields that substantively engage research in philosophy of disability.

Founded in 2020 by Joel Michael Reynolds, the goal of the JPD is to provide easy access to the highest-quality work in the field of philosophy of disability. It is published by the Philosophy Documentation Center without requiring payments from authors. The JPD is the official journal of the Society for Philosophy and Disability and it fully supports the society's mission.
