CfP Journal of International Management (Elsevier)

Special issue: Thirty Years Later: A Fresh Look at the Central and Eastern Europe Transformation and its Implications for Institutions, Organizations and Organizational Actors
 
Our colleague, prof. Elena-Mădălina Vătămănescu, is happy to announce the CfP for a special issue co-edited together with prof. Dan-Cristian Dabija, Babeş-Bolyai University, Romania, prof. Andrew Inkpen, Thunderbird School of Global Management, USA and prof. Alexei Koveshnikov, Aalto University School of Business, Finland.
 
Continuing the legacy of previous collections on the topic (Organization Studies, 1996; Human Relations, 2007; Journal of International Management, 2008), this special issue seeks to augment the understanding of the current state of transformation in CEE countries and the international management implications for institutions, organizations and organizational actors. The SI envisages papers that examine the influence of recent socio-political and economic developments (e.g. the rise of nationalism, economic sanctions, the changing role of the state, the establishment of new institutional bodies) on business activities in the region and also papers that explore the lasting legacy of the socialist past and its manifestations in these countries.

Message from prof. Constantin Bratianu, the new elected President

Dear Colleagues,
It is a great honor and responsibility for me to continue the successful leadership of prof. Ettore Bolisani, and to contribute to strengthening the role of IAKM in promoting KM in this disruptive knowledge economy.

It is a tough challenge but also a good opportunity for IAKM to be one of the important driving forces in developing further KM, both in theory and practice. 

I would like to thank all IAKM founders and past Boards members for their efforts in creating this wonderful Community of Practice. My heartful thanks go to Ettore Bolisani for his inspirational leadership and personal encouragement to continue his work. Also, I would like to thank Alexeis Garcia-Perez, Malgorzata Zieba and Juan Gabriel Cegarra-Navarro for accepting to be members of the new Board and to create together with Ettore Bolisani, as Past President, a great team!

Best wishes,

Constantin Bratianu
