Special Issue of the International Journal of Cross-Cultural Management

Cultural metaphors and similar approaches to understanding culture and cultural similarities and differences have become more popular recently. These approaches provide a ‘different’ way of looking at culture that is distinct from the more quantitative measures of culture, and they provide additional ways to understand culture and its impact on management. The Caribbean region has been largely ignored in management research, and this special issue devoted to cultural metaphors within the region is intended to add to our knowledge of the region.

We welcome contributions about anywhere in the region and want to include views from the Dutch, English, French, and Spanish Caribbean; however submissions must be in English. Submissions will be blind reviewed in the traditional IJCCM review process. If you are interested in preparing a submission and would like more information on the metaphor concept, please send an email to eureka@caribsurf.com. If you are willing to serve as a reviewer for the Special Issue, please send an email to the same address.
