Ethos. Kwartalnik Instytutu Jana Pawła II KUL (Ethos: Quarterly of The John Paul II Institute, KUL) is a scholarly, peer-reviewed journal focused on philosophical problems that emerge in contemporary culture. Each issue has a particular theme, such as "Consciousness and Identity," "Truth and Post-truth," "Language," "Memory," "Waiting," and "Alienation." Contributors take multi-disciplinary approaches, drawing on the humanities and social sciences, and particularly philosophical anthropology and ethics. The Journal, launched in 1988 on the initiative of Professor Tadeusz Styczeń, SDS (1931–2010), accepts works in Polish and in English, and its Editorial Board includes eminent scholars from across Europe and America. Ethos. Kwartalnik Instytutu Jana Pawła II KUL is published by the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin. The Center for Study of the Thought of John Paul II "The John Paul II Institute" at the KUL is in charge of the conceptual and editorial profile of the journal.
