Dear Colleagues,
The JMS Editorial team would like to remind prospective Special Issue Editors that JMS is currently accepting proposals for Special Issues.
Deadline for proposals is the 30th September 2016. Proposals should be sent by email to
business.jms@durham.ac.uk.
A Special Issue is a refereed collection of articles on a predetermined theme. The theme typically focuses on an area of inquiry that has not been sufficiently explored in management literature, and that is sufficiently broad to be of interest to JMS readers. The editors are particularly keen to support Special Issues that address a previously neglected theme, or develop new or distinctive lines of research, as opposed to 'generic' presentations that provide an undifferentiated outlet for an already existing set of themes, or established lines of research.
There are specific guidelines for the development of a Special Issue proposal. The team of Guest Editors for the Special Issue handle all manuscripts from their initial submission; they assign reviewers, and they make decisions (reject, revise, conditionally accept) and communicate those decisions to the lead authors. Once the Guest Editors have papers that are nearing acceptance they will forward the papers to the General Editors of JMS for approval before the papers can be accepted.
You can find full guidelines for Special Issue Guest Editors on our website:

Best Wishes,
Joy
