CALL FOR PROPOSALS

CGIR Review Issue 2021

Deadline for Submission of Proposals: September 1, 2019

Corporate Governance: An International Review seeks proposals for

review articles that consolidate and advance current knowledge of

subjects in line with the mission of the journal. The mission of CGIR

is to publish cutting‐edge international business research on the

phenomena of corporate governance throughout the global economy.

We define corporate governance broadly as the exercise of power

over corporate entities so as to increase the value provided to the

organization's various stakeholders, as well as making those

stakeholders accountable for acting responsibly with regard to the

protection, generation, and distribution of wealth invested in the firm.

Review articles should be high‐impact scholarly surveys of impor-

tant streams of governance research. They should compile the state

of corresponding knowledge, integrate related literatures and provide

promising avenues for future research. Their scope should be broad

enough to attract general interest and sufficiently focused to be dealt

with in a single article.

Submissions have to follow a two‐step process. First, an article

proposal must be submitted by September 1, 2019. The proposal

outlines the subject, the novelty and the contribution of the review.

Proposals should be double‐spaced and not exceed eight pages of text

(including a brief executive summary, but excluding references).

Complete papers will not be considered. Authors may indicate in their

proposal that the draft of a full paper already exists. Submissions of

proposals must be made via the CGIR website (https://mc.

manuscriptcentral.com/cgir) and indicate that the submission is

intended for the CGIR review issue.

Proposals will be evaluated with regard to the following criteria:

•Fit of the subject with the scope of CGIR

•Relevance and novelty of the review topic

•Incorporation of relevant literatures

•Integration of related concepts and/or streams of research

•Implications for future research

•Overall significance of intended contribution

•Clarity of exposition and writing

Final decisions on proposals will be made by October 15, 2019.

Authors of selected proposals will be invited to submit a full paper

of their review article by March 31, 2020. Full papers will be subject

to the CGIR standard double‐blind reviewing process. It is anticipated

that the review issue will be published in 2021.
