A comment on The Reddit world map – How to map out online social networks. Parent comment
Instead of mapping by citation I would like this world map to have its geographic boundaries demarcated by topic (I think).
You see, philosophers don't even agree what constitutes the sub-disciplines of their discipline so I figure we could find out empirically by mapping.
Of course this presupposes that we can identify papers and works as firmly philosophical in the first place when there are bound to be edge-cases.
I realise that my idea may be a bit fuzzy but I accept that it is a proto-idea, not you fully formed. Thoughts?
