Dear all As many of you will know, Alan Rugman was intensely proud of Multinational Business Review, the journal he had edited since 2009. Following this week's terribly sad news regarding Alan's passing, I can announce that Rajneesh Narula has agreed to act as interim editor for the journal. As Director of the John H. Dunning Centre for International Business at the University of Reading, Rajneesh brings a wealth of expertise to the role. His leadership will enable MBR not only to honour Alan's memory, but also to strengthen the wider International Business discipline. We will offer the forthcoming MBR issue - a collection edited by Mark Casson on MNE theory - as a tribute to Alan, and I am grateful to the contributors for agreeing to this.
