Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy is a peer-reviewed academic journal published quarterly by Wiley-Blackwell that covers feminist philosophy. The editor-in-chief is Sally Scholz. Book reviews are published by Hypatia Reviews Online.
The journal is owned by a non-profit corporation, Hypatia, Inc. Miriam Solomon, professor of philosophy at Temple University, has been president of the board of directors since 2016.
Hypatia has its roots in the Society for Women in Philosophy. Its founding editor was Azizah Y. al-Hibri, who started it in 1982 as "piggy back" issues of the Women's Studies International Forum before it became an independent journal in 1986. The journal is named after Hypatia of Alexandria, an ancient Greek philosopher.
According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2015 impact factor of 0.519, ranking it 28th out of 40 journals in the category "Women's Studies".
Sally Scholz, professor of philosophy at Villanova University, became editor-in-chief in 2013. The managing editor is Miranda Pilipchuk, a PhD student at Villanova, and Shelley Wilcox, professor of philosophy at San Francisco State University, is the book-review editor. They are supported by a board of 10 associate editors, an advisory board of 10 members, a team of 12 local editorial advisors, and a 25-strong editorial board.
The associate editors appoint the editors-in-chief, who are hired for five-year terms. They are expected to advise on editorial policy, help to find and review submissions, and elect new associate editors. As of May 2017, the associate editors were Linda Martín Alcoff (CUNY), Ann Cahill (Elon), Kim Hall (Appalachian State), Cressida Heyes (Alberta), Karen Jones (Melbourne), Kyoo Lee (John Jay), Mariana Ortega (John Carroll), Ásta Kristjana Sveinsdóttir (SFSU), Alison Wylie (Washington), and George Yancy (Emory).
