Foreign Trade Review

Aims & Scope

The Foreign Trade Review is intended to serve as a comprehensive forum for theoretical and empirical research on cross-border issues.

The coverage of the journal includes, but is not limited to the following branches of research: international trade and open economy macroeconomics, international marketing, international finance, international logistics and trade facilitation, and multilateral trade law architecture and WTO-related research.

The journal publishes research articles, literature review articles, short commentaries and book reviews.

Foreign Trade Review follows a double-blind peer review policy.

Rather than replication exercises, submissions are sought for new ways of estimating existing theoretical models and development of new theoretical models along with their empirical estimation.

Application of newly developed statistical models (along with their computer programmes and dataset, if required) in the context of existing theory or new theory is another area of interest for the journal.

The major target audience of Foreign Trade Review includes the researchers and academicians involved in theoretical and empirical research on cross-border issues.
