The Canadian-American Theological Review (CATR) is the primary academic publication of the Canadian-American Theological Association (CATA), intended to facilitate conversation on matters of theology, Scripture, and culture. Published twice annually, the journal includes contributions from leading theological and biblical scholars from around the world. CATR is blind peer-reviewed, digitally indexed, and licensed by the American Theological Library Association (ATLA). Free full-text copies of the journal are available to members on this website.

CATR gratefully accepts articles, book review submissions, and book review requests from potential contributors and publishers. Contributions to CATR are especially welcomed in areas such as theological exegesis of selected biblical texts; concerns of theological method; the role of Scripture in theology and ethics; the history of reception or history of interpretation of biblical texts; hermeneutical challenges in theological exegesis; and major review essays interacting with key books, whether contemporary or classical. We are happy to provide publishers with pre-publication reviews of their submitted material upon request. Submissions should be of academic quality and tone, and should generally conform to the standards laid out within The SBL Handbook of Style for Biblical Studies and Related Disciplines: Second Edition (Atlanta: SBL Press, 2014), supplemented by the Chicago Manual of Style: Sixteenth Edition (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2010). All submissions will be evaluated through blind peer-review, edited, and potentially shortened for suitability for publication. Although the CATR editor makes every effort to promptly acknowledge all submissions, it is important to note that the initial review process generally takes a minimum of three months. |
