International Journal of Business Governance and Ethics

As the world becomes increasingly dominated by interconnected corporations alongside increasing demands for transparency and accountability, business governance is no longer just about running companies and organisations efficiently, but about managing wider responsibilities. Company directors need to move beyond governance concerns that deal with their functional responsibilities towards understanding how their personal values and actions affect the organisations they lead, and how in turn these affect local and global communities. IJBGE provides a professional forum to address these issues. Topics covered include: -Philosophies, theories, governance structures- Composition, tasks, behaviours, effectiveness of Boards- Selection, remuneration, motivation of Boards/Executives- Legal/statutory requirements of Boards- Values, actions, behaviours of business leaders- Strategies for effective stakeholder governance- Stakeholder accounting/measurement of business actions- Ethics of business actions, values/assumptions of business- Social/societal implications of corporate wealth, power, domination- Reconciling employee/business/community rights- Government-business relationships and public accountability- Challenge of ownership and responsibility

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Cites per Doc

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.
