Editorial information

INNOVAR emerged as an academic journal published by the Universidad Nacional de Colombia's Economics Faculty's Entrepreneurial Management and Finance departments in 1991; it was designed as a vehicle for broadcasting research work in the field of business administration and public accountancy. It is aimed at students, teachers and researchers interested in theoretical, empirical and practical themes related to the social and administrative sciences.

The first three numbers were published annually. From 1993 onwards the journal changed its name to INNOVAR, revista de ciencias administrativas y sociales and is currently edited four times a year with a 350 printed copies. Up to date INNOVAR is one of the most recognised journals in the fields of Business Administration and the Social Sciencies in Colombia.

The journal's content is divided into sections made up of articles dealing with different themes such as: business culture; international management and economics; marketing techniques and publicity; entrepreneurial/business history; production management; teaching; narcotrafficking and society; industrial relationships; public administration; the environment; the human factor; accountancy; finance; costs; organisations; bibliographical debates; and reviews of current books dealing with these topics.

The content of an article is the author's responsibility; editorial policy is open and democratic.

To have an article published in INNOVAR an author must send his/her contribution to the journal's address, according to those specifications contemplated in our guidelines. Such articles must be clearly and concisely written, the authors paying rigorous attention to both how matters are raised, approached and argued in their documents. An evaluation process is then begun whose results lead to the editorial committee being able to accept an article in its entirety or request modifications and adjustments which an author must make before submitting the document for evaluation again.
