handle is hein.journals/jrnlvi30 and id is 1 raw text is: The Journal of Value Inquiry 30: 1-18 (June 1996) © 1996 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Editorial In celebration of Value Inquiry ROBERT GINSBERG Guest Editor (Executive Editor 1990-1995) This special issue is offered to our readers in celebration of the Journal's thirty years of publication. The celebration of what we have become is also a cordial invitation to you to join in carrying the Journal forward for another thirty years with renewed vitality and with increasing value. The many treats offered here illustrate the interests, features, and resources of the Journal. Our opening Symposium centers on Values in Education. Most philosophers are educators; hence, education should become a focus of their philosophiz- ing. Every society relies on education for the discovery, development, clarifi- cation, or inculcation of values; hence, philosophical inquiry into the place of values in education will be socially valuable. The Symposium format, which had been designed for the Journal by Myra Moss, gathers together a variety perspectives about common themes and investigates related topics. A Sympo- sium is more than the sum of its essays, for it assists the reader to enter into the discussion as participant and judge. David A. Reidy's essay for the present Symposium is the winner of the 2nd James Wilbur Prize. A cash award has been made by Kluwer Academic Pub- lishers in honor of the Journal's founder. The prize competition was conducted by an independent Board of Judges, consisting of Joseph P. DeMarco, Keith Irwin, Dana R. Flint, Sharon C. Schwarze, Kevin W. Sweeney, and, as chief judge, Bruce V. Foltz. We are grateful for their professional assistance. Bruce V. Foltz has written the introduction to the set of essays selected by the judges for publication in the Symposium. Our second Symposium, on Russian Value Theory, has been in the works for several years. This project involved the commissioning and writing of essays, their translation, their editing and revision, and their introduction. Admirable cooperation between scholars in Russia, the Ukraine, and the United States has made this ground-breaking Symposium a reality. Introduc- tions are provided by Alexander V. Razin, Richard T. Hull, and Darren Longo, highlighting their roles in bringing forth this major contribution to under- standing the thinking about values in post-communist Russia. What we offer
