The Australasian Journal of Philosophy is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal of philosophy and "one of the oldest English-language philosophy journals in the world". It was established in 1923 as the Australasian Journal of Psychology and Philosophy, obtaining its current title in 1947.
It is published by Routledge on behalf of the Australasian Association of Philosophy. In 2007, it was rated "A" in the European Reference Index in the Humanities. It is abstracted and indexed by the Arts and Humanities Citation Index, Historical Abstracts, Scopus, Philosopher's Index, ProQuest databases, and Current Contents/Arts & Humanities.
Continuously published since its foundation in 1923 — with all members of the Australasian Association of Psychology and Philosophy receiving copies of the journal free of charge as a perquisite of their membership (it was also available to non-members at a cost of three shillings an issue, or ten shillings a year) — it was published quarterly (in March, June, September and December) from 1923 until 1937, and triannually from 1938 to 1978, except for the period from 1943 to 1947, when limited war-time supplies restricted the publication to only two issues a year.
It resumed quarterly publication in 1979. Originally published by the Australasian Association of Psychology and Philosophy (later, Australasian Association of Philosophy) itself, it switched to Oxford University Press in 1998. Since 2005, the journal has been published by Routledge.
