Notes
All volumes of Studies in Philosophy and Education are now available in electronic form on the journal's website: http://www.springerlink.com/content/102999/.
In the second issue of the journal the following institutions were listed as “sustaining institutions and societies:” Middle Atlantic States Philosophy of Education Society; Midwestern Philosophy of Education Society; Ohio Region Philosophy of Education Society; Queens College, Flushing, New York; Rutgers—The State University; New Brunswick, NJ; School of Education, New York University, NY, NY; School of Education, Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY; University of Toledo, Toledo, Ohio.
With this I am partly responding to a trend in our field towards co-authored publications. While real co-authorship should be encouraged I am concerned about a tendency, prevalent in some countries more than others, where, for example, doctoral students seem to be required to list their supervisors automatically as co-authors on everything they write. While I do consider it important to be generous in our acknowledgements—after all, an academic publication is always the outcome of many conversations and interactions with people and their writings—the question of authorship and who takes ultimate responsibility for what is put on paper is different from this, and I consider it important that the two are not conflated.
