Aim & Scope
Aim
Economics, Management and Innovation provides a peer-reviewed venue for economics, management, and innovation. The journal is intended for economists, management scholars, innovation researchers, and policy-facing analysts. Its editorial goal is to publish articles that make the research question, method, evidence, and limitations visible enough for readers to evaluate and reuse.
Core Scope
The journal considers manuscripts in the following areas:
- Original studies in innovation management with transparent assumptions and evaluable evidence.
- Research on entrepreneurship that explains methods, data, and interpretation limits.
- Applied work involving organisational change where practical relevance is supported by analysis rather than assertion.
- Interdisciplinary work connecting economic policy to adjacent scientific, engineering, health, environmental, social, or policy questions.
Article Types Considered
The journal may consider empirical articles, conceptual papers, case studies, survey studies, policy analyses, and reviews. Article type should be selected according to the main contribution, not according to desired length or perceived prestige.
Method and Evidence Expectations
For this field, manuscripts should pay particular attention to:
- research question
- data source
- identification strategy or analytic logic
- measurement validity
- managerial or policy boundary conditions
Out of Scope
The journal does not consider manuscripts that are purely promotional, lack a research question, duplicate previously published work, make unsupported clinical or policy claims, present unverifiable results, or fall outside economics, management, and innovation. Manuscripts that are technically sound but do not fit the journal's subject identity may be returned before peer review.
Editorial Standard
The journal does not require spectacular novelty. It requires a clear contribution, appropriate citations, transparent methods, relevant ethical approvals where needed, and a limitations section. Reviewers and editors should ask whether the work is trustworthy and useful for its intended readership.
