Guidelines for Authors and Style Guide
Articles should be between 5,000–6,000 words, inclusive of footnotes but exclusive of bibliography and abstract. Abstracts should be about 100 words. The editors reserve the right to publish articles outside of that range. Submissions may be made online at https://AfricanChristianTheology.org or sent via email to submissions@AfricanChristianTheology.org.
Questions? Email Editors@AfricanChristianTheology.org.
(Note that abstracts will be printed in English, French, and Portuguese.)
Book Reviews
African Christian Theology publishes two types of book reviews, “Book Note” style short reviews of 300– 600 words and critical review essays of 1500–3500 words; the full bibliographic information of the book being reviewed is included in this word count. Reviews should include a summary. At least half of the review should reflect critical engagement on the book’s strengths and weaknesses. For reviews of edited multi-author volumes, authors and chapter titles should appear in bold type in the body of the review. If African Christian Theology arranged for a copy of the book being reviewed to be provided, the review should be submitted within three months of reception of the book.
