ABOUT THE JOURNAL
The Annals of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian
University - Economy, Commerce and Tourism Series is
the multi-disciplinary online journal of The Faculty of Touristic and Commercial Management which is a faculty
of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian University.
Since the publication of our first online issue in 2009,
the Annals of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian
University - Economy, Commerce and Tourism Series has
provided, and continues to provide, a vital conduit
for scholarly work that offers practical approaches
to the issues that our society faces. The journal is
designed to enhance knowledge about matters of current
interest to professionals in the fields of economics,
business and society, with a particular interest in
tourism, trade and other services.
Because our mission is to bring the highest quality
research to the widest possible audience, in 2009 the
Annals of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian University
- Economy, Commerce and Tourism Series has been launched,
that is the online edition to the journal Analele Universitatii,
Seria: Economie, Comert si Turism, a paper edition founded
in 2004, ISSN 1842-9459. The online edition has been
published yearly and, since 2013, the journal Annals
of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian University
- Economy, Commerce and Tourism Series has been a biannual
publication with the content solely in English.
The aims of the Annals of "Dimitrie Cantemir"
Christian University - Economy, Commerce and Tourism
Series are to redefine and reinvigorate the intersection
between economics and business, and to exploit the enthusiasm
of academic scholars and social scientists for their
subject to create stimulating articles, because our
philosophy starts from the assumption that everyone's
viewpoint is potentially a source of illumination. Our
ethos is therefore that all opinions are entitled to
respect, and our journal is the best way to show them
that respect.
It publishes original academic research and papers
of the highest scholarly standard through both empirical
and theoretical work. Empirical papers may be qualitative
as well as quantitative, and theoretical papers will
not be confined to deductive model-building. Papers
suggestive of more generalizable insights into the economy
as a domain of social action will be preferred over
narrowly specialized work. While firmly committed to
the highest standards of scholarly excellence, the Annals
of "Dimitrie Cantemir" Christian University
- Economy, Commerce and Tourism Series encourages manuscripts
of the practical and ethical dimensions of economic
action, with the intention to contribute to both the
advancement of social science and the building of a
better economy within our society.
Being a multi-disciplinary journal, topics up for articles
will range from the ethics of global warming to the
different mathematical models to economic problems,
and from corporate social responsibility to the factors
that affecting businesses and economies at national
and international level.
Suitable papers in the following fields will be also
considered: market restructuring, organizational behaviour,
international trade, forecasting of demand for goods
and services, or different approaches to measuring development
in both macroeconomic and microeconomic level, as well
as examining the decisions and actions of individual
people and companies.
New methodological approaches are particularly welcome,
as are the exchange of critical comments on important
topics in economics and business. Other key topics covered
are likely to include marketing, entrepreneurship and
human resources.
The journal is steered by a distinguished team of Editors
and an Editorial Board, that is geographically diverse
and represent a wide variety of disciplines. Submitted
papers are refereed on the spatial dimensions of contemporary
socio-economic change, and are evaluated on the basis
of their creativity, significance, clarity and as well
as by the authors' contribution to advancing understanding
of economic systems and global economic change, in order
to ensure both high quality and relevance for an applied
audience.
