Call for papers



Central Asia Business Journal (CABJ)
ISSN 2073-5901 (Print)      

The Central Asia Business Journal, published by KIMEP University twice each year, promotes
understanding of business issues (broadly defined) in the region.

Central Asia is a fertile area for research.  It prospers from rich natural resources and high commodity
prices as well as from its location at the crossroads of East and West.  But its open economy is
vulnerable to such external shocks as the global financial crisis of 2008, and its Soviet legacy
complicates its transition to markets.

Authors may submit research papers, case studies, and book reviews as either completed works or as
abstracts and proposals.  We also invite students’ papers.  Refereeing is double-blind.

The journal is open to all methodologies, but it especially welcomes papers that are conceptually and
analytically strong and that relate to the real world.  Its interests include:
      
International accounting standards and taxation
Corporate governance
Financial and capital markets and industries
Market structure and efficiency
Human resources management
Leadership
International business and globalization
Business law
Marketing strategies and effectiveness
Tourism and the hospitality business
Logistics and supply chain management
Management information systems
Business cycles and economic development
Market integration and segmentation
Emerging markets
Institutional economics
Microfinance and development    
Multinational enterprises and business strategy
Natural resources and their internationalization
Nongovernmental organizations and entrepreneurs
Mathematical economics
Statistical economics
Risk and uncertainty

Deadline for completed work: March 15, 2014.  We try to give the author a decision in six weeks.  All manuscripts must be in English.
