STRATEGIC ENTREPRENEURSHIP JOURNAL

Call for Special Issue Proposals

Submission Due Date: November 15, 2024

The Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal invites proposal submissions for a Special Issue of the journal. We encourage proposals that seek to shape or reshape important research conversations in our field or open entirely new ones. The proposal document should include the following:

1. Potential guest editors and their CVs (as well as a link to their websites, if available)
2. Proposed special issue theme
3. Description of theme (up to two pages)
1. Relevance and importance to the SEJ readership
2. Potential research questions
3. How it shapes or reshapes important research conversations or opens new ones
4. Plan for distributing the Call for Papers and publicizing the Special Issue

We expect the process to be highly competitive as SEJ can accommodate only a handful of Special Issues for the next 2-3 years. Accordingly, the Co-Editors will review proposals after the deadline and invite a subset for further consideration and development. The evaluation will consider the theme (fit with conversations in SEJ and related venues, importance, breadth, and scope of the target audience) as well as the SI editorial team (editorial experience, capabilities, and reputation).

For context, here are SEJ Special Issues recently published or currently in production:

• Re-thinking Academic Entrepreneurship: Micro, Macro, and Meso Perspectives (TBA)
• Entrepreneurial Decisions in the Digital Age (TBA)
• Uncertainty and Competing Goals: Advancing Behavioral Theories of Entrepreneurial Processes and Outcomes (TBA)
• Business Model Innovation Design: Deploying Strategic Entrepreneurship to Address Grand Challenges (TBA)
• Strategic Entrepreneurship in Craft-Based Ventures (December 2024)
• Leading the Digital Transformation of Incumbent Firms (March 2024)
• Environmental Change, Strategic Entrepreneurial Action, and Success (June 2023)
• Reframing Social Entrepreneurship Research (March 2023)
• Catalyzing Change and Innovation in Women's Entrepreneurship (June 2022)
• Advancing Entrepreneurship Research through Meta-analysis (September 2021)
• Policy for Innovative Entrepreneurship (June 2021)
• Emerging Market Entrepreneurship (September 2020)
• Historical Approaches to Entrepreneurship Research: Investigating Context, Time, and Change in Entrepreneurial Processes (March 2020)

Please submit your proposals to the SEJ editorial office at: sej@strategicmanagement.net.

We look forward to your submissions.
