Economic and Business Review
 

Introduction

The Economic and Business Review (EBR) is the official peer-reviewed journal of the University of Ljubljana, School of Economics and Business. Economic and Business Review is the successor to the “Ekonomska revija” (Economic Review, 1950-1990), and the “Slovenska ekonomska revija” (Slovenian Economic Review, 1991-1999). Between the years 1950 and 1999, it developed as a journal serving Slovenia. In 1999, the EBR transformed into a modern scientific journal with an international editorial board serving countries outside of Slovenia. Since its inception, the EBR respected its specific role as a platform for the development of professional terminology in the Slovene language in the areas of economics and business. The editorial policy reflected this by publishing one issue per year dedicated to articles in the Slovene language. As of 2021, the editorial policy in this respect changed as other channels for language development were considered more effective. Consequently, only articles in the English language are published from 2021 onwards.

EBR is a double-blind peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing rigorous research that advances the understanding of competitiveness. The journal focuses on studies examining how organizations and economies not only respond to dynamic and conflicting environments but also strategically leverage these tensions to achieve competitive advantage at both organizational and national levels.

See the Aims and Scope for complete coverage of the journal.
