Abstract: Business & Society (B&S), Business Ethics Quarterly (BEQ) and the
Journal of Business, Ethics (JBE) are leading journals in the, related
fields of business ethics and business and society. Citations may be used as
an indicator of relative influence. An analysis of their 2001 citations to
one another and to the Academy of Management Journal and the Academy of
Management Review is presented, showing that an argument could be made for
ranking for any of the three journals first, depending on criteria used for
judgement and the definition of the universe of those being influenced. The
journal most widely recognized among management scholars in general is JBE;
however, BEQ and B&S are favoured by experts in their respective
sub-disciplines, with B&S citations indicating a closer relationship to the
Academy of Management journals.
