Dear fellow AIB members, I am happy to announce the publication of the inaugural issue of an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, the Journal of Strategic Contracting and Negotiation <http://jscan.sagepub.com/> . A list of contributions for the first issue follows. An initiative between Sage Publications and the International Association for Contract and Commercial Management, JSCAN <http://jscan.sagepub.com/> begins with a worldwide circulation of over 30,000 academics, managers and policy makers, and we plan to expand its reach. Among other efforts, all scholarly articles are translated into 1000 word executive summaries for our corporate and government practitioner audience and we are engaging in active media outreach of topical research. We have some wonderful contributions over the next few issues; we also warmly welcome your articles and ideas for special issues.
