content
The first issues were mainly devoted to clarifying the concept of an intercultural philosophy, the philosophical requirements of an intercultural discourse and the reorientation of culture-centrist traditions and terminology.
With regard to the objective of the magazine, editorial member Michael Shorny wrote in the first issue: “'polylog' wants to make the many philosophizing voices in the context of their respective cultures and in their relevance for other cultures, in all ways of their articulation, equally audible to one another. "
Each issue is devoted to a different topic, such as philosophy in Islam, universalism, tolerance, translation, self-cultivation, human rights or biotechnology.
