Associated Journals

An important avenue to fulfill the mission of BALAS is to provide publishing outlets for our members as well as increasing scholarly awareness of the region. To this end, we invite a selection of the best papers presented at each annual conference to go through the review process at a selected group of collaborating Journals.

We are very thankful for the continued support of all the journals that have collaborated with BALAS community, including: Journal of Economics, Finance and Administrative Science (JEFAS), the Journal of Management History, Management Research: The Journal of the Iberoamerican Academy of Management, Academia - Revista Latinoamericana de Administración (ARLA), Latin American Business Review (LABR), Revista Brasileira de Gestão de Negócios (RBGN), the Journal of Evolutionary Studies in Business (JESB), Emerald Emerging Markets Case Studies (EEMCS), and TEC Empresarial.

Journal of Economics, Finance and Administrative Science (JEFAS) is a high-quality, open-access, peer-reviewed journal that welcomes current and relevant contributions with rigorous theoretical and empirical implications from business areas such as management, economics, and finance. While manuscripts may focus on a country or small group of countries, we appreciate submissions that reflect and explore Latin- or Ibero- American contexts. All authors must make their submissions with institutional email and updated ORCiD. PhDs, doctoral candidates, and early-stage researchers are most welcome to submit. Publishes twice a year. In line with its commitment to knowledge culture, JEFAS does not charge authors for publication, as all costs associated with publishing an open-access article are funded by ESAN.

Journal of Management History (JMH) is an interdisciplinary journal, publishing rigorous, high-quality research using diverse methodologies and theoretical approaches on issues related to the history of management thought, research and practice. As such, we welcome a wide range of papers. However, nevertheless, papers should be formulated around empirical, historical evidence, and should have a theoretical basis. Papers should make a clear contribution to theory either through a review of previous literature, examining the historical underpinnings of a theory, and develop or extend theory. Papers should expound a clear methodology, including any possible limitations, and show a developed sense of historical context.
