About the journal
|
As the first reviews journal in the field of business and management, the International Journal of Management Reviews (IJMR) is an essential reference tool for business academics and doctoral students alike. The journal covers all the main management sub-disciplines including, for example, HRM, OB, International & Strategic Management, Operations Management, Management Sciences, Information Systems & Technology Management, Accounting & Finance, and Marketing. Each issue includes five or six state-of-the-art literature review articles/surveys which examine the relevant literature published on a specific aspect of the sub-discipline, for example, HRM: Appraisal Systems.
The IJMR complements the other publications produced by the British Academy of Management and is deliberately targeted at a wide readership interested in business and management. The journal publishes authoritative literature surveys and reviews. These will address the intellectual and academic needs of the broad academic management community both in the UK and on a wider global scale.
Such papers are targeted at several key audiences or readerships:
Members of the academic community who will expect to be kept abreast of disciplinary areas outside of their own specific domains of expertise; The journal will enable senior faculty to undertake more interdisciplinary research by providing a wider understanding or emerging thought and methodological developments in other fields, and by so doing, facilitating the development of transdisciplinarity;
- More established researchers who are looking to update their knowledge in their own particular field, or who are shifting their area of focus or developing collaborative or inter-disciplinary work extending beyond their established specialisation;
- Supporting doctoral candidates in the production of their theses by producing comprehensive reviews/debates and to locate their research within past, present and future debates.

Instructions to Authors
Guidance for contributors:
Because the journal looks to publish high-quality literature surveys in the general area of management, it is broadly, rather than narrowly, defined in terms of what it is willing to publish.
Key criteria for an appropriate review are listed below:
1. Is there sufficient literature to warrant a literature survey (is the area of concern mature enough?)
2. Is the literature surveyed coherently bounded (i.e. are there justifiable reasons why certain literature is included and other literature excluded)?
3. Is the analysis of the literature surveyed complete - in terms of discussions of any contrasting methodologies used in the literature, the general conclusions to be drawn from the literature (e.g. the current agreements and disagreements contained therein), etc. ¨C in short, a thorough and timely discussion of where the literature is now, and why?
4. Does the review draw reasoned and authoritative conclusions as to where the literature is/should be going what are the important questions left to be asked?
5. At whom is the review aimed (the expected audience is mainly an academic one) and will it be sensibly understood by its intended audience?
Articles are submitted for double blind refereeing. Occasionally some articles are specially commissioned from leading international experts in the field
Whilst there is no minimum word limit for the size of reviews submitted, it is recommended that reviews do not normally exceed 10,000 words in length.
Review Process:
Manuscripts, following successful screening by an Editor-in-Chief, will normally be reviewed by a minimum of two external reviewers and an associate editor. The editorial board will endeavour to ensure authors are informed of a decision within 90 days of receipt of the article in acceptable format. Neither authors nor reviewers will be identified in the review process.
Format:
Title page:
Title, name, position, affiliation, address, telephone number, email address of each author. Please indicate the contact person with an asterisk.
First page:
The first page of the text should begin with the title only, without the author's name, and a summary of no more than 250 words. This should summarize the whole paper and not the conclusions alone.
Body of the article:
Submissions should be prepared on A4 paper, using double line spacing, a minimum of 1 inch margins, and 12 point Times New Roman font. The priorities of headings and sub-headings should be clearly indicated; please try to avoid using numbered paragraphs or headings, though bracketed numbers can be used to indicate priority of headings.
Mathematical analysis and statistical data should be placed in appendices where possible, and where Greek letters or other special sorts are used please ensure they are clear on the manuscript.
To assure anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves, directly or indirectly, in the text.
Illustrations
Figures, tables and footnotes should be supplied on separate sheets grouped at the end of the manuscript, with a note of their location in the text, e.g. (Table 1 here). Each table or figure should bear an arabic number and a title, and should be reasonably interpretable without reference to the text.
Referencing procedure:
Books and journal articles should be referred to in the text by the authors name and year of publication, e.g. (May and Phillips 1992) or May and Phillips (1992). A full reference list should be included at the end of the paper using the following convention:
Levine, E.L., Ash, R.A. and Bennett, N. (1980). Exploratory comparative study of four job analysis methods. Journal of Applied Psychology, 65, 524-535.
Ilgen, D.R., Major, D.A. and Tower, S.L. (1994). The cognitive revolution in organizational behaviour. In Greenberg, J. (ed.), Organizational Behaviour: The State of the Science. Hillsdale, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum.
Where reference is made to more than one work published by the same author in a single year, a suffix, a, b, etc. should follow the date, thus: (Smith, 1989b).
Please ensure that all citations in the text are listed in full in the reference list, and vice versa.
Copyright issues:
Submissions should be completely original and should in no way violate any existing copyright or contain anything of a libellous character. Copyright of published reviews will be held by Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the British Academy of Management, and contributors will be asked to sign a copyright declaration form. This ensures that requests from third parties to reproduce reviews are handled efficiently and consistently, and allows the review to be disseminated as widely as possible. In assigning copyright, authors retain the right to use their own material in other publications provided that International Journal of Management Reviews is acknowledged as the original place of publication. Copyright assignment is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher for production unless copyright has been assigned. To assist authors an appropriate copyright assignment will be supplied by the editorial office. Alternatively, authors may like to download a copy of the form here. Government employees need to complete the Author Warranty sections, although copyright in such cases does not need to be assigned.
