The Journal of Camus Studies is designed to provide an interdisciplinary forum for conversation about the life and work of Albert Camus. The Journal of Camus Studies was founded in 2008 as the Journal of the Albert Camus Society by Simon Lea. The inaugural volume represented the work of international authors exploring the life and work of Camus from a variety of philosophical and theoretical perspectives. In 2010, Peter Francev was appointed General Editor in an effort to focus more intentionally on reaching an academic audience. The goal of the journal is to provide an international and interdisciplinary resource for those interested in furthering the work and thought of Albert Camus and his contemporaries.
