Periodical Usefulness: An International Perspective

摘要

This paper reports the findings of an international survey of logistics academics on their views of journals used for research, teaching and outreach. Being a specialist field within lousiness management, the rankings provide a guide to both logistics specialists and to our peers in other business fields as to the top journals in logistics and supply chain management. The results have been separated into US and rest of the world (mainly EU). The results have not been combined due to the larger number of returns from US academics, which would bias a single rankings list. This being said, the results do show that four out of the top five journals are placed on both lists, indicating that there is world-wide acceptance of the top journals in the field.
