Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.

The Financial Times conducted a review in May 2016 of the journals that count towards its research rank. As a result, the number of journals considered went up to 50 compared to 45 previously. The 200 odd business schools that take part in either the FT Global MBA, Executive MBA or Online MBA rankings were invited to submit up to five new journals to include and five journals to exclude from the previous list. A total of 140 schools submitted their votes, a response rate of 67 per cent. Out of the 10 selected journals up for review, we decided to drop the four journals that each received 60 per cent or more of the votes: Academy of Management Perspectives, California Management Review, Journal of the American Statistical Association and RAND Journal of Economics. Out of the 150 new journals suggested, the nine journals (*) with the most votes were added to the list.

This study seeks to assess and rank the relative quality of 30 international business journals using both a citation analysis and a survey approach. Journal rankings are presented using both approaches in addition to a composite ranking. The rankings provide an objective analysis of journal quality for tenure and promotion committees, for IB researchers considering journal submission options and provide the academic community with a better understanding of which international business publication outlets are the most influential in guiding research in this discipline.

How to publish in this journal

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Evolution of the number of published documents. All types of documents are considered, including citable and non citable documents.

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Evolution of the total number of citations and journal's self-citations received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. Journal Self-citation is defined as the number of citation from a journal citing article to articles published by the same journal.

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.

International Collaboration accounts for the articles that have been produced by researchers from several countries. The chart shows the ratio of a journal's documents signed by researchers from more than one country; that is including more than one country address.

Not every article in a journal is considered primary research and therefore "citable", this chart shows the ratio of a journal's articles including substantial research (research articles, conference papers and reviews) in three year windows vs. those documents other than research articles, reviews and conference papers.

Ratio of a journal's items, grouped in three years windows, that have been cited at least once vs. those not cited during the following year.

Evolution of the percentage of female authors.

Evolution of the number of documents cited by public policy documents according to Overton database.

Evoution of the number of documents related to Sustainable Development Goals defined by United Nations. Available from 2018 onwards.

International Reaction to Donald Trump's Criminal Conviction

International Reaction to Donald Trump's Criminal Conviction

Former US President Donald Trump leaves the courthouse after a jury found him guilty on all 34 counts in his criminal trial in New York State Supreme Court in New York, New York, USA, 30 May 2024. Trump is facing 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign. JUSTIN LANE/Pool via REUTERS

(Reuters) -A New York jury found Donald Trump guilty of falsifying business records to cover up a hush-money payment to a porn star, making him the first former U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.

Here is some international reaction:

KREMLIN SPOKESMAN DMITRY PESKOV:

"If we speak about Trump, the fact that there is simply the elimination, in effect, of political rivals by all possible means, legal and illegal, is obvious."

HUNGARIAN PRIME MINISTER VIKTOR ORBAN ON X:

"I’ve known President @realDonaldTrump to be a man of honour. As President, he always put America first, he commanded respect around the world and used this respect to build peace. Let the people make their verdict this November! Keep on fighting, Mr. President!"

BRITISH OPPOSITION LABOUR PARTY LEADER KEIR STARMER:

"First and foremost, we respect the court's decision in relation to the decision in the Trump case. There's sentencing still to go and possible appeal, but we respect the court process.

"...We have a special relationship with the U.S. that transcends whoever the president is, but it is an unprecedented situation, no doubt about that."

NIGEL FARAGE, A LEADING BREXIT CAMPAIGNER IN BRITAIN WHO HAS CAMPAIGNED WITH TRUMP, SAID ON X:

"This verdict is a disgrace. Trump will now win big."

MATTEO SALVINI, ITALY'S DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER AND HEAD OF THE LEAGUE PARTY:

“Solidarity and full support for @realDonaldTrump, victim of judicial harassment and a process of political nature. In Italy, we are sadly familiar with the weaponisation of the justice system by the left, given that for years attempts have been made to eliminate political opponents through legal means. I hope Trump wins; it would be a guarantee of greater balance and hope for world peace.”

YORHIMASA HAYASHI, CHIEF CABINET SECRETARY, JAPAN:

"We would like to refrain from commenting on matters relating to judicial procedures in other countries.

"The Japanese government is not in a position to make comments with presumption about the impact on the (U.S.) presidential election. In any event, we are closely monitoring related developments and will continue to gather information."

MEL STRIDE, BRITAIN'S WORK AND PENSIONS SECRETARY, TO SKY NEWS:

"As a government cabinet minister, there is a long-held convention that we don't interfere in elections overseas, so I really can't comment on that particular question, in the same way we wouldn't expect American politicians to start throwing comments in about our general election.

"They are clearly dramatic, very dramatic turn of events and let's wait to see what happens, but ultimately the choice will be for the American people ... in November."
