The Verlag Karl Alber has numerous academic series in the fields of ethics\/practical philosophy, phenomenology and philosophy of religion in its portfolio. Alber also publishes seven annuals. They are distinguished by the fact that – supervised by renowned editors – they continuously work on their philosophical field, stimulate discussions and inform about the current state of research. They are accompanied and supported by a broad-based academic advisory board.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n

Interdisciplinary research and thus the integrative approach of such research projects opens up new perspectives and promotes a deeper understanding of complex issues. <\/p>\n \n \n Learn more about the series\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
