Focus and Scope

Radical Orthodoxy: A Journal of Theology, Philosophy and Politics is an internationally peer reviewed journal dedicated to the exploration of academic and policy debates that interface between theology, philosophy and the social sciences. 

RO:TPP welcomes submissions from scholars and intellectuals with interesting and relevant things to say about both the nature and trajectory of the times in which we live.  The journal intends to publish papers on all branches of philosophy, theology aesthetics (including literary, art and music criticism) as well as pieces on ethical, political, social, economic and cultural theory.

The journal will pursue an innovative editorial policy by publishing pieces both longer and shorter than those typically published in mainstream academic journals (alongside those of standard length). It also seeks to publish work of a more artistic or poetic mode---be it fiction, poetry, or art. 

Open Access Policy

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.
