The Society for Philosophy of Emotion (SPE) is an association of scholars who are interested in philosophical concerns about emotion, broadly construed, from a wide range of philosophical and interdisciplinary perspectives, including metaphysics, philosophy of mind, epistemology, philosophy of language, ethics, aesthetics, non-Western philosophy, political philosophy, feminist philosophy, philosop
hy of race, philosophy of disability, experimental philosophy, moral psychology, psychology, neuroscience, sociology, anthropology, linguistics, law, economics, and business. The SPE holds that philosophers of emotion can learn from emotion experts in other areas and disciplines, and vice versa. It seeks to encourage an open exchange of ideas on emotion, does not promote any specific ideology, and is associated with the Journal of Philosophy of Emotion (JPE), with which it shares the core values of diversity, inclusiveness, collegiality/community, honesty, integrity, the principle of charity, rigorous scholarship, and clarity of content.
