Call for Papers

[Journal of APEC Studies]
The Journal of APEC Studies (JAS) is the official publication of the APEC Studies Association of Korea. JAS publishes manuscripts of significant interest that contribute to the theoretical and practical basis of business, economics, and international trade studies. The journal's broad scope and editorial policies create accessible, thought-provoking content for the general academic community of business, economics, and international trade. The goal of JAS is to publish insightful, innovative, and impactful research. 
Subject Coverage
JAS is an interdisciplinary journal that welcomes submissions from scholars in business, economics, trade disciplines, and other disciplines (e.g., political science) if the manuscripts fall within the JAS domain statement. Papers are especially welcome combining and integrating theories and concepts taken from or that can be traced to origins in different disciplines.
JAS is a methodologically pluralistic journal. Quantitative and qualitative research methodologies are both encouraged, as long as the studies are methodologically rigorous. Conceptual and theory-development papers, empirical hypothesis-testing papers, and case-based studies are all welcome. Mathematical modeling papers are welcome if the modeling is appropriate, and the intuition is explained carefully.
Notes for Prospective Authors
Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All papers are referred through a peer-review process.
All manuscripts should follow the submission guidelines found on the online submission system (specifics can be found on https://apecstudies.jams.or.kr). Upon the publication decision, the accepted manuscript’s corresponding author should submit the Author’s Check List and the signed Copyright Transfer Agreement, including the list of all authors.
