Testimonials

“Research into the governance and accountability practices of organisations in different parts of the world is crucial if we are to take a holistic view of social responsibility and move the agenda forward. Despite growing interest, importance and relevance, this is still somewhat limited in developing countries, and submissions of this nature are not always welcome in certain journals. Not so with Social Responsibility Journal, where they not only accept, but actively encourage submissions in this area”.
Riham R. Rizk PhD, Accounting and Finance Course Leader, Durham Business School

Journal of International Trade Law and Policy celebrates its 10th Anniversary
Edited by Mohammad S. Alramahi, The University of Hull, UK
The Journal of International Trade Law and Policy is a peer reviewed interdisciplinary journal which seeks articles from any jurisdiction on the broad theme of international trade. The aim of the journal is to provide a forum for current issues in all aspects of international trade, including legal, economic, management and policy issues. Articles should reflect the international focus of the journal but this does not preclude articles from a single jurisdiction which are of international interest.
