IACCM has recently launched its new peer-reviewed academic journal entitled Journal of Strategic Contracting and Negotiation (JSCAN). The description states: “The official journal of the International Association for Contract and Commercial Management, JSCAN is an outlet for research and theory about practices that challenge the status quo in strategic contracting and negotiations, and the commercial implementation of business strategy or policy. It also addresses the impact of contracting and negotiation on trust and ethics in business. Contracting and negotiation have become core to organizational and inter-organizational relationships, irrespective of sector or industry, and of national or international boundaries.”
