Journals Devoted to Ethics (general):

  Ethics
        One of the pre-eminent philosophical journals on ethics and political theory.  Although it aims to
        be interdisciplinary, its articles are mostly written by and for philosophers and political theorists.

  Philosophy and Public Affairs
        The other pre-eminent philosophical journal of ethics, PPA is similar to Ethics in aim and scope.

  Social Theory and Practice
        A bit less prestigious among philosophers than Ethics or Philosophy and Public Affairs, this
        journal is more genuinly interdisciplinary.  Its articles are often more daring than those in the
        slightly more stuffy philosophical journals, and they are often also more accessible to
        non-philosophers.

  The Journal of Value Inquiry
        This journal is rather similar to Social Theory and Practice in its tone and intellectual daring-ness.

   Utilitas
        A journal dedicated to the study of utilitarianism.

  Journal of Applied Philosophy
        Many of the articles in this journal deal with issues in applied ethics.
