The Academy of Management is home to an archive of 50,000 previously published journal articles. In August 2022, AOM introduced Academy of Management Collections with the mission of publishing carefully curated collections of these articles, tied together by an original essay. Since then, various AOM scholars have authored articles as part of a Collections volume.
“Writing an article for the Academy of Management Collections is truly rewarding. It allows authors to not only find common threads but also point to directions for future research and implications for practice. You are forced to be concise and write in a way that will reach out to a very broad readership.” -Herman Aguinis, co-author of Collections Vol. 3, No. 1
When authoring articles of Collections, scholars can take part in memorializing the past to make sense of the future. The most recent issue of Collections was co-authored by Deborah E. Rupp, Herman Aguinis, Donald Siegel, Ante Glavas and Ruth V. Aguilera. “Corporate Social Responsibility Research: An Ongoing and Worthwhile Journey” tells the story of corporate social responsibility (CSR) research by presenting a curated collection of 19 articles published from 1973 through 2022 in all Academy of Management journals.
“Collections provides a unique opportunity for scholars to curate existing research from the AOM archive and share their voice and insights with the field. This is a wonderful chance to get into the minds and learn from some of AOM’s best thinkers. -Benjamin Martell Gavin, Collections co-editor
A volume of Collections may be comprised of articles that reflect a single literature, or they may tie together seemingly unrelated articles into a meaningful conversation relevant to the understanding of a topic or issue. A collection includes 10-20 articles selected from the AOM archive, with the original essay. The articles form a coherent thematic whole, as expressed in the curating essay. Each collection, inclusive of the original essay and selected articles, forms a single volume of Collections.
