Focus and Scope
Hinge is a peer-reviewed annual publication of undergraduate works contemplating topics in contemporary philosophy and critical theory. It is published by the Contemporary Studies Society of the King's Student Union at the University of King's College in Halifax, Nova Scotia. We publish essays, short stories, poetry, and visual art investigating the contemporary condition.
