Journal of Formal Axiology: Theory and Practice
The J ournal of Formal Axiology is published once a year, since 2008, by the Robert S. Hartman Institute.
Each edition is focused on advancing formal axiology and the value theory of Robert.S. Hartman and includes articles dealing primarily with axiological practice and application, as well as with theoretical issues.
Articles may be critical, constructive, creative, theoretical, or applied, and are focused on advancing our understanding of Hartmanian axiology and/or what can be done with it. All material is original and has not been published any where else.
All published issues of the Journals are available to RSHI Members, as a Member Benefit. If you are a member, login in here. (If you'd like to know more about becoming a RSHI Member, click here.)
We hope you derive value from each publication and that you find them informative, enjoyable, intellectually challenging, or all the above.

“For the first time, I feel, scientific knowledge and mastery of physical nature can be matched by scientific
knowledge and mastery of our moral nature. Natural science has changed the world; value science, too,
once it is known, developed and applied, is bound to change the world.”
--Robert S. Hartman

The articles in the 2019 issue of the Journal of Formal Axiology exemplify the depth and breadth of intellectual rigor of members of this Institute. We continue in this issue a practice we began in 2017, which is to publish, regularly, some piece of Hartman’s own writings. Hartman was a prolific writer, but much of what he wrote was never published. Many of his writings that were published deserve a new audience.

“I thought to myself, if evil can be organized so efficiently [by the Nazis] why cannot good? Is there any reason for efficiency to be monopolized by the forces for evil in the world? Why have good people in history never seemed to have had as much power as bad people? I decided I would try to find out why and devote my life to doing something about it.”
