IAME takes the action: ME Mag

 

International Association of Maritime Economists (IAME) has settled upon a new project, The Maritime Economist Magazine (ME Mag). Based on the increasing gap between scholarly research and business practice, an interactive and compromising platform is emerged particularly in the last decade. The gap between scholars and professionals as well as policy makers causes impractical scientific efforts in addition to inferior business applications and ineffective practices (also policies). For fixing the growing debate, The Maritime Economist is designed in an original and extraordinary style for merging both scholarly knowledge and practical experiences.

 

ME Mag is an active platform for collaborations, and serves as a promotional stand for scholars, policymakers and industrial experts. A critical feature is that no articles will be written in the traditional academic format, and this will motivate and encourage scholars to freely express their works in a format easily understandable, and stimulate genuine interests, to practitioners. In addition to its �scholarly� content, a number of sections (e.g. Profession & Practice, FreshMINDS) welcome submissions from professionals and policy makers.

 

With several exciting sections, it also encourages challenging the conventional wisdom, debating emerging topics and rising problems. ME Mag will be a new breath for the maritime world. There is a growing shipping media including several newspapers, magazines and news portals. ME Mag is not a competitor among the huge shipping press and actually develop strong ties. IAME is a non-profit organization and ME Mag is also a non-profit initiative. Therefore, ME Mag does not aim at competing with other successful magazines and newspapers, but pleased with benefiting and collaborating for projects contributing to the major role of ME Mag. ME Mag has completely different concept and editorial framework in terms of the content policy, article screening and funding scheme.

 

THEMARITIME Economist is to be published quarterly.
