    BRITISH JOURNAL OF MANAGEMENT

    Call for Special Issue Proposals

    Proposals are invited for a special issue in BJM. The special issue will be published in early 2018 and we anticipate that the call for papers will identify a specific topic or sub-discipline, and a range of themes that might be addressed within that area. The proposal should contain the following:

    a) A statement of 1-2 pages introducing the existing state of research in the area (including existing debates in BJM), and why the special issue will make a meaningful contribution to them.

    b) Any evidence that the special issue will attract a wide readership and meaningful citations.

    c) A draft call for papers.

    An effective special issue should include contributions based on robust empirical investigation(s), with solid theoretical underpinnings within a specific domain, and where possible building on a comprehensive body of literature and sets the agenda for future research. All proposals will be reviewed by members of the editorial board and judged according to quality of the likely contributions as well as their ability to enhance BJM's reputation.

    Given BJM's general readership, very focused or specialized proposals, dealing with narrow niche areas of little interest to a general audience are discouraged.

    The deadline for proposals is 31st December 2015 and a decision will be made by 1st March 2016. Proposals should be emailed to bjm@bam.ac.uk.

    Co-Editors-in-Chief: Pawan Budhwar and Geoffrey Wood
