Trending and Emerging
- Impact of Historical Context on Entrepreneurship:
There is an increasing focus on how historical contexts shape entrepreneurial education and practices, as evidenced by studies examining the evolution of entrepreneurship education and its historical significance. - Institutional Change and Governance:
Recent works emphasize the role of institutions in shaping organizational behavior and governance. This includes historical analyses of regulatory frameworks and their impact on organizational practices. - Integration of Digital Tools in Historical Research:
The emergence of digital tools and methodologies, such as machine learning and network analysis, for historical research is gaining traction. This trend reflects a broader movement towards utilizing technology in the humanities. - Cultural Heritage and Organizational Identity:

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Management Theories:
There is a noticeable decline in the focus on traditional management theories that do not incorporate historical analysis. The journal is moving towards more contextualized and historically-informed discussions rather than purely theoretical frameworks. - Narrow Case Studies:
The journal seems to be moving away from narrowly focused case studies that lack broader implications or historical context. There is a shift towards studies that connect specific cases to wider historical or theoretical debates. - Overly Prescriptive Management Practices:
Research that emphasizes prescriptive management practices without historical grounding appears to be waning. The journal favors studies that provide historical insights into the evolution of management practices rather than offering contemporary prescriptions.
