Philosophy of Photography is a peer-reviewed journal devoted to the scholarly understanding of photography. It is not committed to any one notion of photography nor indeed to any particular philosophical approach. The purpose of the journal is to provide a forum for debate on theoretical issues arising from the historical political cultural scientific and critical matrix of ideas practices and techniques that may be said to constitute photography as a multifaceted form. In a contemporary context remarkable for its diversity and rate of change the conjunction of the terms 'philosophy' and 'photography' in the journal’s title is intended to act as a provocation to serious reflection on the ways in which existing and emergent photographic discourses might engage with and inform each other.

This peer-reviewed journal aims to lead the debate. The Poster stands as a vehicle for the ideas of media theorists; scholars of Cultural Studies and Cultural Materialism; for social psychologists of visual communication for architects and designers of wayfinding schemes; for philosophers of Aesthetics and Politics Society and Linguistics; for social scientists anthropologists and ethnographers; for political campaigners and artist activists; for communications researchers and visual communications practitioners.
