Open Theology journal (http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/opth) invites groups of researchers, conference organizers etc. to submit their proposals of edited volumes to be considered as topical issues.

Open Theology is an international Open Access, peer-reviewed academic journal that welcomes contributions addressing religion in its various forms and aspects: historical, theological, sociological, psychological, and other. The journal encompasses all major disciplines of Theology and Religious Studies, presenting doctrine, history, organization and everyday life of various types of religious groups and the relations between them. We publish articles from the field of Theology as well as Philosophy, Sociology and Psychology of Religion, and also dialogue between Religion and Science.
