After 17 years the Global Economics and Management Review (GEMRev) is re-launched with a new publisher – Elsevier – and new leadership; you can see the well-acclaimed Editorial Board composition at the end of this message. The blind peer-reviewed journal is published three times per year in English. GEMRev welcomes a broad spectrum of high quality contributions focusing on the analysis of trends and issues arising in an evolving global economy.
About GEMRev
The journal publishes theoretical, empirical and experimental papers both quantitative and qualitative – in various fields of management and economics, including non-profit organizations and the social economy. The geographical scope of the studies may be global, national or «mega-regional», with a special interest, but not limited to, in emerging economies and Portuguese-speaking countries.

The editors encourage submissions of cross-functional and multidisciplinary research that reflects the diversity of the economics and management fields. With a focus on providing stimulating readings embracing different perspectives from the fields of social sciences, the journal is particularly inclined to publish multidisciplinary research contributing to the understanding and advancement of human development. Therefore GEMRev invites articles that aim to start new conversations within and across the different fields of the management and economic sciences.
Since replication is an essential characteristic of the scientific method, GEMRev is open to replications of existing studies in different contexts or time-frames. Well-crafted papers challenging the status quo, particularly evidence-based ones, would also be welcome additions.
Submitted papers must be original, should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere while under consideration for GEMRev. All submissions must conform to our publication guidelines. For further information or assistance, please contact the Managing Editor Ana Simaens: or the Editor-in-Chief Paulo Bento: .
