The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies

The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies is an academic journal devoted to the study of the philosophy of Ayn Rand. Established in 1999, its founding editor is New York University scholar Chris Sciabarra. At present, the other two editors are Stephen D. Cox and Roderick Long. Although the Objectivist movement of supporters of Rand's philosophy has been criticised as being a cult of personality, the Journal of Ayn Rand Studies often publishes papers by mainstream intellectuals and academics from prestigious universities worldwide that approach Rand's legacy without hagiography.

The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies is published twice a year. Occasionally, it publishes special issues.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
