SUBJECT

Call for new or updated entries for FOLDOP, the "Free On Line Dictionary Of
Philosophy" published by SWIF.

ABOUT US

SWIF (<http://www.swif.it>) is the Italian Web Site for Philosophy, directed
by Prof. Luciano Floridi. With texts in English and Italian, it is entirely
based on the free collaboration online among a large number of researchers
and students in philosophy.

FOLDOP (the Free On Line Dictionary Of Philosophy -
<http://www.swif.uniba.it/lei/foldop>), is the English dictionary of
philosophy published by SWIF. With 2.483 edited entries, it is the biggest
and most complete dictionary of philosophy freely available online. Since
its recent publication it has already had more than 28.000 visitors and it
is linked by several international philosophical sites.

ABOUT OUR PROPOSAL

After two years of work, we have now developed the project further and
created a new search engine, more functional and serviceable, thus entering
a second stage of the project.

The editorial team of FOLDOP would like to invite the international
philosophical community to contribute to the project. Contributions can
consist in new entries or corrections/addenda/updates of old entries.
Authors who would like to revise old entries substantially are also welcome.
Our goal is to be as complete and comprehensive as possible, so no
contribution is too small or irrelevant, if it can improve the contents of
FOLDOP.

Anyone interested in collaborating to the project, especially authors
interested in writing or editing one or more new entries (possibly in
English, but Italian is also acceptable), can contact Prof. Gian Paolo
Terravecchia, the Project Coordinator, (<mailto:FOLDOP@swif.it>), suggesting
the entry or entries on which he or she wishes to work.

All new or substantially revised entries will be signed by the author.

To ensure the dictionary correctness and reliability, a scientific committee
of referees will evaluate all submitted entries.
