Special Issue: Economics in the 21st Century

With this special issue the co-Editor-in-Chief together with the other Department Editors wants to celebrate Günter Fandel’s 80th birthday and his 22 years as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Business Economics so far.

For this purpose, almost all department editors contributed to a joint article where each of them outlines important recent developments in their respective fields and the role the Journal of Business Economics under the leadership of Günter Fandel has played herewith so far. In addition, notable scholars in various sub-disciplines were asked to contribute original articles as surveys outlining significant developments in their areas of expertise. In total, nine articles were selected, covering topics ranging from production theory to business ethics.

Founded in 1924 by Fritz Schmidt as “Zeitschrift für Betriebswirtschaft”, the Journal of Business Economics, under the leadership of Günter Fandel, has developed to be one of the most important business journals in Germany. This is undoubtedly due to Günter Fandel's tireless dedication. We sincerely hope that Günter Fandel will continue to contribute to the advancement of business research in Germany for a long time to come.
