Welcome to the Academy of Management Review (AMR) Journal.

AMR Special Issue Call for Papers: THEORIES OF WORK AND WORKING TODAY

This call for papers on "Theories of work and working today" seeks to expand on these themes by encouraging scholarship to:

  • examine how well our existing theories and assumptions about management research apply in these emerging work environments;
  • revisit and revise existing theory, assumptions, or perspectives to more accurately reflect the challenges and realities of these emerging work contexts; or
  • evaluate and propose new conceptual frameworks to better understand work.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Academy of Management Review (AMR) is to publish new theoretical insights that advance our understanding of management and organizations. AMR is receptive to a variety of perspectives, including those seeking to improve the effectiveness of, as well as those critical of, management and organizations. Submissions to AMR must extend theory in ways that permit the development of testable knowledge-based claims. To do this, researchers can develop new management and organization theory, significantly challenge or clarify existing theory, synthesize recent advances and ideas into fresh, if not entirely new theory, or initiate a search for new theory by identifying and delineating a novel theoretical problem. The contributions of AMR articles often are grounded in "normal science disciplines" of economics, psychology, sociology, or social psychology as well as nontraditional perspectives, such as the humanities. AMR publishes novel, insightful and carefully crafted conceptual work that challenges conventional wisdom concerning all aspects of organizations and their roles in society.
