History

Ethics is the direct continuation of the International Journal of Ethics, established in October 1890. Its first volume included contributions by many leading moral philosophers, including the pragmatists John Dewey and William James, idealists Bernard Bosanquet, and Josiah Royce, and the utilitarian Henry Sidgwick.[citation needed] The journal was established by the leaders of the

J.H. Muirhead, as part of an editorial board which also featured philosophers from Paris, Berlin, and Prague.[4]
The journal's first editor was S. Burns Weston, who assembled an international editorial committee.

From its first issue in October, 1890 the journal published articles on ethics, discussions, and book reviews. It also served another function, which was to report on the activities of ethical culture societies around the world. Examples include the 1891 "book review" summarizing the annual report of the Workingman's School that was being operated by the New York Ethical Society[5] and Jane Addam's 1898 report and commentary on her reformist social work at Hull House in Chicago.[6]

In 1914, James Hayden Tufts became the editor of the journal, and brought on John Dewey as an associate editor. Under his leadership, the journal gradually shifted away from the Ethical Culture Movement and became a leading journal of philosophy.[citation needed] It was sold to the University of Chicago Press in 1923.[7]

W.D. Ross.[7]

Under the leadership of Brian Barry[8] in 1979, the journal became more interdisciplinary[citation needed] and once again quite international,[citation needed] and the editorial board grew to fifty-two members. Editor Gerald Dworkin instituted a double-blind review process in 1991. In 2017, the then editor, Henry S. Richardson, removed the remaining qualifications resulting in a review process in which none of the editors learn the authors' names until after the final decision has been reached on their submission. In 2018, Julia L Driver and Connie S. Rosati became co-editors of the journal, the first women to do so in its history.
