/CALL FOR PAPERS
Satellite Sessions Sponsored by The Sacra Doctrina Project
2026 Annual Meeting of the American Catholic Philosophical Association
Washington, DC: November 12–15, 2026
Conference Theme: “The ACPA at 100: Living Tradition”
(President: Christopher Kaczor, Loyola Marymount University)
The Sacra Doctrina Project warmly invites its members of all ranks, as well as other interested scholars, to submit paper proposals for our two sponsored satellite sessions for the 2026 annual meeting of the American Catholic Philosophical Association. In keeping with our mission, these satellite sessions intend to explore the philosophical principles and concepts traditional to Catholic theology and doctrine. Specifically, we propose to host two sessions:
Satellite Session I: “Praeambula fidei: Perennial Foundations for Theology.”
Satellite Session II: “Philosophical Principles for the Development of Dogma.”
Submissions discussing either philosophical principles pertinent to development as such or the development of any specific dogma are equally welcome.
A 150–250 word abstract and a short CV should be submitted by Wednesday, July 1, 2026 to: dmgarlandjr@yahoo.com. A submission for each session is permissible and welcome.
Please contact Daniel Garland, Ph.D., at dmgarlandjr@yahoo.com or David Sherwood, S.T.L., at david.f.sherwood@avemaria.edu with any questions.
