  The theory of causal dynamical triangulations (CDT) attempts to define a
nonperturbative theory of quantum gravity as a sum over space-time geometries.
One of the ingredients of the CDT framework is a global time foliation, which
also plays a central role in the quantum gravity theory recently formulated by
Ho\v{r}ava. We show that the phase diagram of CDT bears a striking resemblance
with the generic Lifshitz phase diagram appealed to by Ho\v{r}ava. We argue
that CDT might provide a unifying nonperturbative framework for anisotropic as
well as isotropic theories of quantum gravity.
