About Eastern European Business and Economics Journal
Eastern European Business and Economics Journal (EEBEJ) is an international academic journal devoted to the publication and dissemination of original research in business, economics, management, finance, entrepreneurship, public policy, and closely related interdisciplinary fields. The journal encourages scholarship that contributes to theoretical development, empirical knowledge, methodological advancement, and informed decision-making.
EEBEJ welcomes studies addressing Eastern Europe, the Baltic region, the European Union, emerging and transition economies, and comparative international contexts. Geographic relevance, however, does not restrict the journal’s scope: manuscripts examining global economic and business challenges are also considered when they offer clear scholarly, practical, or policy significance.
The journal serves researchers, university lecturers, doctoral candidates, policymakers, institutional leaders, financial professionals, entrepreneurs, and practitioners. It seeks to connect academic analysis with real economic and organizational challenges while promoting transparent, responsible, and internationally relevant scholarly communication.

- encourage comparative and interdisciplinary perspectives;
