Call for Proposals: Special Issue of Project Management Journal

Authors are encouraged to submit research papers that are addressing the literature on projects and networks. The goal of the special issue is to assemble papers that focus on projects either from a network perspective or as a form of network governance to significantly advance our knowledge in these areas. To this end, all papers should be based on theoretically informed and empirically rigorous research using qualitative or quantitative designs and methods.

Deadline for full paper submissions: 31.10.2016

Editors (Special Issue): Robert DeFillippi, Stephan Pryke, John Steen and Jörg Sydow
