Competition & Change
Business & Management (General)
SAGE commenced publication from Maney of this journal from 2015. All prior published volumes are available to access on SAGE Journals, follow ‘all content’ link above.
Competition and Change is an international peer-reviewed journal, uniquely featuring theoretical, empirical and policy oriented research that aims to develop an understanding of the causes and consequences of competition and change with respect to globalization, financialization and broader conceptualizations of restructuring capitalist relations. The journal is inter-disciplinary and welcomes contributions from a wide range of social science disciplines, including heterodox economics, political economy, critical research on work, management and organization, economic geography, sociology, development studies and international relations. In particular, we are interested in research and scholarly work that focuses on:
1. The nature of contemporary capitalism, including its organizational and spatial dynamics and their gendered effects
2. The drivers, mechanisms, and uneven impacts of globalization and social change
3. The changing configuration of state-market-civil society relations, including diverse forms of governance, regulation, resistance, and social welfare
4. The forms, processes and consequences of financialization
5. Global value chains and production networks, industrial clusters and other organizational forms with new implications for economic, social, and environmental upgrading.
6. Different forms and disruptive influences of capitalist instability including global civil society, social movements, migration, and climate change.
7. Industrial structure, nature of competition and performance within and across national/regional economies
8. How global political economy shapes, and is shaped by, the worlds of work, organization, society, and nature
The journal publishes:
• Full length peer reviewed articles (7,000 to 10,000 words)
• Special and themed issues
• Review articles and position pieces (3,000 to 8,000)
• Short items of relevant news and information for the academic community for our news section (500 to 2,000 words).
The editors of the journal aim to return an initial decision on all submissions within 12 weeks from the date of submission.
The journal is indexed in SCOPUS.
