An overview of former Yugoslav philosophical journals in Serbian libraries: A retrospective

Albahari Biljana (Institut za filozofiju i društvenu teoriju, Beograd)

The paper represents a review of philosophical magazines and other social science magazines. It also gives a review of other cultural magazines in which philosophical texts have been published. The review covers magazines published in Serbia and other former Yugoslav republics starting from 1898 - when the first philosophical magazine, Archive of Philosophy, Pedagogy and Social Sciences made its appearance - until today. Currently, old editions of these magazines have been converted into electronic form and, along with the new editions, are available on the Internet. The magazines that are analyzed in this paper were published in Serbo-Croatian, Croatian, Serbian, and Albanian, and some are even multilingual. The magazines were distributed in the libraries throughout the historically changing country (with its various names) of Kingdom of Yugoslavia, Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Republic of Serbia.
