JAB strives to comprehensively cover all business disciplines by publishing high quality analytical, conceptual, and empirical articles that demonstrate a substantial contribution to the broad domain of African business. Regardless of the research context, tradition, approach, or philosophy, manuscripts submitted to JAB must demonstrate that the topics investigated are important to the understanding of business practices and the advancement of business knowledge in or with Africa.

Targeted toward academics, policymakers, consultants, and executives, JAB features the latest theoretical developments and cutting-edge research that challenge established beliefs and paradigms and offer alternative ways to cope with the endless change in the business world.
