Synthese is a philosophy journal focusing on contemporary issues in epistemology, philosophy of science, and related fields. More specifically, we divide our areas of interest into four groups: (1) epistemology, methodology, and philosophy of science, all broadly understood. (2) The foundations of logic and mathematics, where ‘logic’, ‘mathematics’, and ‘foundations’ are all broadly understood. (3) Formal methods in philosophy, including methods connecting philosophy to other academic fields. (4) Issues in ethics and the history and sociology of logic, mathematics, and science that contribute to the contemporary studies Synthese focuses on, as described in (1)-(3) above.

Synthese是一本哲學期刊，主要關注當代認識論、科學哲學和相關領域的問題。更具體地說，我們將我們感興趣的領域分為四類：（1）認識論、方法論和科學哲學，所有這些都被廣泛理解。（2）邏輯和數學的基礎，其中“邏輯”、“數學”和“基礎”都被廣泛理解。（三）哲學中的形式方法，包括將哲學同其他學術領域聯系起來的方法。（4）如上文（1）-（3）所述，倫理學、邏輯、數學和科學的歷史和社會學問題是當代研究的重點。
