Call for Papers
JBR Special Issue on Cross-Cultural Research in Business
Submission Deadline: February 28, 2010

In conjunction with the biennial Cross-Cultural Research Conference that will be held in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico from December 13-16, 2009, the Journal of Business Research (JBR) announces a call for papers with the intention of publishing a special issue concerning cross-cultural issues in business. Both empirical and theoretical papers are welcome. Papers must focus on cultural issues. Papers that compare two or more cultures will receive preference over those dealing with one culture. In addition papers dealing with cross-national cultural issues will receive preference over those dealing with intra-national issues. Topics may come from any area of business including, but not limited to:

  • All aspects of cross-cultural consumer behavior.
  • Comparative marketing studies (e.g., advertising strategies, organizational buyer behavior, services, marketing relationships).
  • Comparative management practices (e.g., industrial relations, human resource management, organizational behavior)
  • Comparative business studies (e.g., international strategy, accounting, operations, supply chain management, finance, law, ethics and business communications)
  • Cross-cultural theory and research methods.

Submissions are not restricted to participants of the Cross-Cultural Research Conference. However, we strongly encourage participation in the conference as a way to test your ideas, get preliminary reviews, and receive feedback from like-minded scholars. The conference deadline for submission of either full papers or abstracts is September 15, 2009. For more information regarding the conference, visit the conference website ().

Manuscripts for this special issue should be submitted no later than February 28, 2010. The reviewing process for these manuscripts will be similar to that used for previous JBR special issues, including the use of several guest Editors and a specialist review panel. JBR aims to have the special issue published in 2011.

Submit your manuscript in electronic format according to the submission guidelines given on the Journal’s web site
