The Metaphysical Society of America
Founded 1950 Divider Constituent of the American Council of Learned Societies

 
On April 15, 1950 at Yale University, Paul Weiss called to order the first meeting of the Metaphysical Society of America. Building on the work he had started three years earlier with the founding of the Review of Metaphysics, Weiss sought to create a space for metaphysics within the often-hostile terrain of American philosophy. As the opening declaration of the Constitution states, “The purpose of the Metaphysical Society of America is the study of reality.”
