Paper Development Workshop


EIBA 2019 | Leeds, England | Friday 13 December 2019

Submission deadline: 2 September 2019

The Journal of International Business Policy (JIBP) will conduct a Paper Development Workshop (PDW) at the University of Leeds on Friday, December 13, 2019 from 8:30am – 12:00pm as part of the pre-conference program for the EIBA annual meeting (https://eiba2019.eiba.org/).

 

JIBP is the new sister journal to the Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS) published by Palgrave Macmillan and the Academy of International Business (www.jibp.net). Positioned at the intersection between international business and public policy, JIBP publishes articles that identify novel policy issues and dilemmas, propose new policy directions, and measure the effectiveness and impact of policies for business and the wider economy. These include but are not limited to policies for:

·         international business promotion,

·         foreign business attraction,

·         industrial policy,

·         social and development policy,

·         transnational governance.

 

The purpose of the PDW is to provide scholars with developmental feedback on their current research projects. While we hope that many of these papers will eventually be submitted to JIBP, the purpose of the PDW is broader, namely to improve the quality of IB research, to help translate IB research into policy ideas, and to bring new scholars into the IB policy field.

 

The PDW will consist of two parts. First, a 60-minute introductory session (8:30am – 9:30am) led by Sarianna Lundan (editor-in-chief) and Ari Van Assche (deputy editor) will discuss the manuscript review process, and provide guidelines on how to steer a policy turn in international business research. Second, during a 120-minute main session (10:00am - 12:00pm), groups of two authors (with substantively related papers) will be paired with two JIBP editorial board members, whereby each individual paper will receive attention from the paired editors for thirty minutes.

We will only accept a limited number of participants to the JIBP-PDW based on the quality and potential intellectual contribution of their submitted work. Papers should be submitted to Ari Van Assche ([log in to unmask]). The deadline for submissions is September 2. Submitted papers must be less than 10,000 words in length, and follow the JIBP Style Guide. The Style Guide as well as more information on the goals and editorial policies of JIBP are available at www.jibp.net. Each applicant can submit only one paper, but you may submit the same version of the paper that has been submitted to the EIBA 2019 Conference. Please include the names, affiliations and e-mail addresses of all authors on the cover page.

We will notify you about the acceptance to the JIBP PDW by September 15, and will need to confirm participation by October 15, which is the early-bird registration deadline for the conference.

Please note that authors will need to register for the EIBA conference in order to participate in the JIBP PDW.

Please address any questions about the JIBP PDW to Ari Van Assche ([log in to unmask]).
