Publisher

The Journal of Business and Economics in Times of Crisis (JOBETOC) was published by the Lupcon Center for Business Research (LCBR). Please visit the former website of LCBR for further information about the organization.

Scope

Crises are best managed when business decision makers have multidimensional information resources at their disposal. For this reason, JOBETOC published papers from a wide range of academic disciplines.  Papers could come from disciplines as diverse as marketing, economics, finance, ethics, psychology, and many others inside the actual field of business and outside.

Editorial Process

Papers selected for publication had to pass through an anonymized peer-review process. The pool of reviewers included the members of the Academic Advisory Board of LCBR as well as appointed ad hoc reviewers. LCBR Director Christian Wolf served as editor-in-chief of the Journal.
