Daniel Rottig and Romie Littrell are Associate Editor and Editor of "AIB Insights", for past issues see: http://aib.msu.edu/publications/aibinsights.asp We're planning an issue or issues discussing international business and international management into, out of, and within the Arabic Middle East. We'd also be interested in an issue on tertiary education in international business in that region. We could combine the topics if too few for two issues. If you are interested in contributing please send a brief summary to [log in to unmask] . The editorial policy is on the back cover of each issue and listed below. Regards, Romie Frederick Littrell, PhD, FIAIR Associate Professor of International Business Editor, AIB Insights; International Management Area Editor, International Journal of Emerging Markets AUT Business School Tel. extension 5805, Mail stop B-31 AIB Insights is the Academy of International Business official publication that provides an outlet for short (around 2500 words), interesting, topical, current and thought provoking articles. Articles can discuss theoretical, empirical, practical or pedagogical issues affecting the international business community. The publication seeks articles that have an international business and cross disciplinary orientation with IB researchers and faculty as the intended primary audience. Authors should highlight the insight of their article in the first paragraph. They should prompt the reader to think about international business and international business teaching/learning in new ways. Articles sought should be grounded in research, but presented in a readable and accessible format. Articles written for AIB Insights should be free of professional jargon and technical terms, light on references, but heavy on insight from the authors’ experiences and research. Terminology should be defined if it is not in the common domain of the IB literature. Authors should remember the intended audience of the publication and write accordingly. A regression equation, a correlation matrix, a table or a graph needed to support a point may be included. AIB Insights does not seek the kind of articles that are intended for refereed journals in international business, such as the Journal of International Business Studies. The publication is intended to inform, educate and enlighten readers with state of the art information on a topic with a broad appeal to the profession. Acceptable articles may fall into one of several categories: 1. Research insights from authors’ stream of research 2. Current issues affecting international business as a discipline 3. The use of technology in international business 4. The evolving nature and evolution of the International Business department/function/discipline 5. Internationalization of the curriculum 6. Innovative approaches to teaching international business 7. Teaching pedagogy and content articles 8. Other topics of interest Please include a cover page with all the authors’ contact details (email, university affiliation, full address, telephone, fax).
