AIB Insights Call for Papers

Special Issue: “Effects of Coronavirus on International Business”



Editor John M. Mezias and Associate Editor William Newburry





The Covid-19 pandemic is having a devastating effect on people worldwide. According to Johns Hopkins University, more than 6.1 million people have been infected and at least 372,000 people have been killed worldwide (numbers that are more than double when we initially submitted this call in late April and likely to have grown significantly more even before you read this sentence based on current trajectories).



In addition to a human toll, healthcare systems, businesses, economies, governments, and institutions are all struggling to respond to this global crisis. We seek articles from an applied perspective that examine a wide variety of effects with international business consequences from this pandemic. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, healthcare, economic activity, global or regional coordination (or lack thereof), human resource management, governmental or nongovernmental entities and their roles, supply chain challenges, international business in a pandemic, and post pandemic institutions. Articles that examine the complex and multi-level interactions between forces involved in international business in relation to the pandemic would be particularly welcome. Articles may also assess the magnitude and duration of effects and/or develop research or teaching frameworks to provide insights into crisis management.
