You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 18.206.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''''Ethics:  An International Journal of Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy''''' is a [[peer-reviewed]] [[academic journal]] established in 1890 as the ''International Journal of Ethics'', renamed in 1938, and published since 1923 by the [[University of Chicago Press]]. The journal covers scholarly work in [[Ethics|moral]], [[Political philosophy|political]], and [[Philosophy of law|legal]] [[philosophy]] from a variety of intellectual perspectives, including social and [[Political philosophy|political theory]], [[law]], and [[economics]]. It publishes both theory and application of theory to contemporary [[moral issues]], as well as historical essays, provided they have significant implications for contemporary theory. The journal also publishes review essays, discussion articles, and book reviews. The journal employs a [[double-blind peer review]] process.<ref>((cite journal |last=Richardson |first=Henry |date=April 2017 |title=Announcing an Improvement to the Journal's Blind Review Process |journal=Ethics |volume=127 |issue=3 |pages=519–520 |doi=10.1086/690143 |s2cid=151768886))</ref>

According to the ''[[Journal Citation Reports]]'', the journal has a 2019 [[impact factor]] of 1.892.<ref name=WoS>((cite book |year=2020 |chapter=Ethics |title=2019 Journal Citation Reports |publisher=[[Clarivate Analytics]] |edition=Social Sciences |series=[[Web of Science]] |title-link=Journal Citation Reports))</ref>

==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 (philosopher)|Bernard Bosanquet]], and [[Josiah Royce]], and the utilitarian [[Henry Sidgwick]].((citation needed|date=May 2021))
The journal was established by the leaders of the [[humanism|humanist]] [[Ethical Movement]], most notably [[Felix Adler (professor)|Felix Adler]],<ref>((cite journal |last=Turner |first=Piers Norris |date= October 2014 |title= On Felix Adler's "The Freedom of Ethical Fellowship" |journal=Ethics |volume=125 |pages=208–210 |doi=10.1086/677019 |s2cid=170229965))</ref> who was involved in the [[American Ethical Union]], but also his humanist counterparts in the [[Humanists UK|British Ethical Union]] such as [[Stanton Coit]], [[John Stuart Mackenzie]], and [[J.H. Muirhead]], as part of an [[editorial board]] which also featured philosophers from Paris, Berlin, and Prague.<ref>((cite web |url=https://heritage.humanists.uk/international-journal-of-ethics/ |title=International Journal of Ethics |work=Humanist Heritage |publisher=[[Humanists UK]]|accessdate=30 April 2021))</ref> 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<ref>((cite journal |last=Weston |first=S. Burns |date=1891 |title= Review of Society for Ethical Culture, Workingman's School, United Relief Works |journal=International Journal of Ethics |volume=1))</ref> and [[Jane Addam]]'s 1898 report and commentary on her reformist social work at [[Hull House]] in Chicago.<ref>((cite journal |last=Addams |first=Jane |date=1898 |title= Ethical Survivals in Municipal Corruption |journal=International Journal of Ethics |volume=8))</ref>

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|date=May 2021)) It was sold to the [[University of Chicago Press]] in 1923.<ref name=125anniv>((cite journal |last=Richardson |first=Henry |date= October 2014 |title=The 125th Anniversary of the Journal |journal=Ethics |volume=125 |pages=1–10 |doi=10.1086/677755 |s2cid=143905224))</ref>

[[Thomas Vernor Smith]] became editor of the journal in 1932, and brought on a number of new members to the editorial committee, including [[Herbert James Paton]], [[Ralph Barton Perry]], and [[W.D. Ross]].<ref name=125anniv/>

Under the leadership of [[Brian Barry]]<ref>((cite journal |last1=Barry |first1=Brian |title=On Editing Ethics |journal=Ethics |date=1979 |volume=90 |issue=1 |pages=1–6 |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/2380496 |issn=0014-1704))</ref> in 1979, the journal became more interdisciplinary((citation needed|date=May 2021)) and once again quite international,((citation needed|date=May 2021)) 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 Driver|Julia L Driver]] and Connie S. Rosati became co-editors of the journal, the first women to do so in its history.
