The Journal of International Business Policy (JIBP) is the principal outlet for theoretical and empirical research in all areas of policy that relate to international business. Papers are evaluated based on their innovativeness, academic rigor, and policy relevance. All papers should aim to improve the knowledge necessary for designing, implementing, and sustaining effective international business policies.

JIBP welcomes submissions that contribute to our understanding of international business policy in any of the following five policy areas: 1. international business promotion 2. foreign business attraction 3. industrial policy 4. social and development policy and 5. transnational governance.

COVID 19 and impact on peer review

As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times.  Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.
