Call for Reviewers

The Journal of International Business, Economics and Entrepreneurship (JIBE) is always looking for reviewers to support the process of presenting the leading edge thinking and research on business, economics and entrepreneurship topics. As a journal driven by the involvement and contributions of the global author community, those submitting and those reviewing play equally important roles.

Comments should be as complete and detailed as possible and contain clear opinions about strengths, weaknesses, relevance, and importance to the field. Reviewers should consider themselves as mentors to the author(s) and comments should be specific and constructive and suggestions should be intended to enhance the manuscript.

To ensure that the manuscripts published meet the highest standards, each manuscript under consideration is sent to at least two qualified reviewers with expertise in the subject. Reviewers assess the article on criteria such as significance to the field, quality of research, and quality of writing, and then make one of three recommendations: accept the article, return it to the author(s) for revision, or reject.
