Special Issues

The _Journal of Moral Theology_ regularly publishes special issues in April and October. If you have an idea for a special issue, please email the [editor](mailto:journal.moral.theology@gmail.com). Please include a paragraph describing your idea, the contact information of the people who would serve as editors for the issue, and a proposed timeline. If the topic is a fit for the journal, you will be asked to prepare a more thorough proposal and, if appropriate, a call for papers that will be posted on the _JMT_ Scholastica site. All submissions for special issues also undergo double-blind peer review.
