Call for Papers - Final Reminder for Submissions to the Special Issue on International Business in Latin America:
Continuing its outreach to AIB Chapters, the second issue of AIB Insights in 2019 will focus on Latin America. For recent examples of regionally-focused issues, please see the 2018 issues on Africa (Vol. 18, No. 4<https://aib.msu.edu/publications/insights/volume/18/issue/4>) and Central and Eastern Europe (Vol. 18, No. 1<https://aib.msu.edu/publications/insights/volume/18/issue/1>). AIB Insights issues typically have four to five articles each, which vary from those of other AIB journals in that they are shorter (2500 words), are more practitioner oriented, and also are published on a much more rapid production schedule. We invite submissions related to any aspect of international business in Latin America. Given limited space and a desire to reflect the diversity of the region, preference will be given to submissions involving multiple countries as opposed to single-country studies. Example topics include studies that compare institutions across the region, differences across countries in trajectories regarding openness towards international trade, similarities and differences across the region in the role of business groups and/or family firms, among many others. Submissions that examine relationships between Latin America and other emerging and/or developed markets would also be particularly welcome. In order to meet our production schedule, we request initial submissions no later than Monday, March 11. Authors will be notified by March 29, with final revisions due by April 10. Please send your submission to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>, copying [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>, and indicate "Latin America Issue" in the subject line.




Best wishes,
