The journal also publishes uncategorised papers, i. e reviews of philosophically relevant publications published within the period of the last three years.
Text containing plagiarized parts of other people's texts will not be published.
Seeing as this is an electronic journal, the editorial board will accept visual and audio contributions in formats that can be published on the website. Audio and video contributions can be part of a text, but can also be broadcast at the end of the text. Due to technical reasons, it is recommended that the audio and video formats be short. Photographs and graphic sketches are also most welcome. The PDF format will contain only the text written in accordance with the following instructions.
The authors are not charged by the journal for the cost of receiving, reviewing and publishing papers.
All the papers that pass the first editorial control are subject to the so-called double-blind review process which does not reveal the identity of the authors or reviewers.

If the bibliographic details of the works quoted or referred to in the text are not inserted in the form of footnotes, authors are required to list all the cited literature containing all the necessary information about the same at the end of their papers.
Manuscripts are to be sent either by e-mail ( in the form of an attachment) in contact on web site www.centar-fm.org
Referencing
The editor s office recommends referencing by footnotes in a way that has been standard. The first reference to a work in a footnote should have the following form:
If the title and subtitle of a cited paper or book are not already separated by a punctuation mark, in citing them the two must be separated by a full stop and the first letter of the subtitle must be written in a capital letter. For example:
The footnote of an already and previously cited work should only contain the initial of the first name and the full surname of the author, the title of the work (book or article) cited and the relevant page numbers. For example:
In consecutive referring to the same work, the footnotes are only to contain the word „Ibid“ and the relevant page numbers, as in the example below:
The editor s office, naturally, accepts other standards of referencing provided that they are consistent throughout a text.
The instructions are taken from the journal Philosophical Research, HRFD, Zagreb.
