En masse resignations of editors
In May of 2024 the executive, associate, and advisory editors and all of the editorial board members resigned en masse. In a letter to Wiley the outgoing editors and editorial board members stated an intention to launch a new diamond open-access journal to be published by Open Library of Humanities (OLH), with editorial members occupying the same positions they held at Philosophy & Public Affairs.
