Academia is a collective job

At IPM Monthly, we are always looking for new collaborators who want to get more engaged with fostering an open, inclusive, and better academia. The main aim of IPM Monthly is the circulation of valuable information to level the playing field and make academia a fairer work environment. To get in touch with us, you can send us an email at the following address: info.ipmtoday@gmail.com

Collaborations

Would you like to join us in this daring adventure? There are three main kinds of possible collaborations with IPM Monthly.

Contributor

Are you organising a conference or an edited volume and you want to share the news with the broader community? Have you read a recently published book that you believe our colleagues should know about? Or perhaps, have you seen a job post advertised somewhere and you want more people to be aware of it? Just send us an email! We will be very glad to include all that in our monthly sections. Starting in 2023, the December issue will include the list of contributors to express our gratitude to all the people who are collaborating with IPM Monthly. All you have to do is to send us an email with the info you want to share and we will take care of it!

Guest author

Would you like to write some pieces for our sections every now and then, without much commitment to the management of IPM Monthly? Fantastic! You may join our team as guest author. You can either contact us beforehand and check whether IPM Monthly is the right venue for your piece, or you can directly send us your text via email. After having assessed it, we will get in touch with you and a fruitful collaboration will begin.

Team member

If you would like to engage more directly with IPM Monthly, perhaps you may be tempted to join our editorial team. Needless to say, it is a voluntary, unpaid job: but it is a lot of fun, too! By joining the team, you will receive a hands-on training on many transferrable skills, from the day-to-day management of the magazine to more technical web and multimedia skills. We ask interested people to send us their CV together with a (short) letter detailing their commitment to IPM Monthly and its aims. If you want more information, you can send us an email and we will be glad to get in touch with you.

Founded in 2022, IPM Monthly (https://ipmtoday.com/) is a creative endeavour aimed at fostering a new, inclusive, and global approach to the study of medieval and premodern philosophy. Each month, IPM Monthly offers its readers a wide range of news, insights, and interviews on the most debated topics in philosophy, history, and their relationship to society and academia. After two years, the editorial team of IPM Monthly is expanding to include more news and topics, increasing coverage in pivotal areas of our global community. Specifically, we are seeking potential collaborators:

– To manage the flow of information (about events, books, CFAs, grants, etc.) from (1) Eastern Asia, (2) North America, (3) India, and (4) the Middle East.

– To expand IPM Monthly by including and managing new sections dedicated to (a) the history of science, (b) premodern Asian philosophy, and (c) premodern African philosophy.

– To contribute to the existing section of IPM Monthly dedicated to (1) new trends in the history of philosophy, (2) philosophical contributions to societal growth, (3) digital humanities, (4) art and philosophy.

Depending on their availability, new collaborators will be asked to either join the editorial board of IPM Monthly or become editorial collaborators, the latter being the preferred option for those who envision their collaboration as occasional. Joining the IPM Monthly team offers an unparalleled opportunity for intellectual and personal growth through a constant exchange of ideas and perspectives with an international team of young scholars dedicated to making scholarship in the field more interconnected, inclusive, and fair. Please note that IPM Monthly is the result of voluntary work by its team, which receives no compensation for its commitment.

If you are interested in this offer, please send us your CV and a short text detailing how you would like to contribute to the following email address: news.ipmmonthly@gmail.com. Feel free to reach out for additional information or with any questions you may have.
