Electronic Markets

期刊简介：Electronic Markets (EM) is a leading academic journal that offers a forum for research on all forms of networked business. EM recognizes the transformational role of information and communication technology (IT) in changing the interaction between organizations and customers, which is present in social networks, electronic commerce, supply chain management, or customer relationship management. Electronic markets, in particular, refer to forms of networked business where multiple suppliers and customers interact for economic purposes within one or among multiple tiers in economic value chains. As a broad concept, there are many forms of electronic markets: In a narrow sense, electronic markets are mainly conceived as allocation platforms with dynamic price discovery mechanisms involving atomistic relationships. Popular examples originate from the financial (e.g., CBOT, XETRA) and energy markets (e.g., EEX, ICE).     In a broader sense, price discovery is not critical for Electronic Markets. These solutions emphasize longer-term relationships and processes for enabling business transactions (e.g., electronic procurement solutions) and/or knowledge management (e.g., product development, problem and incident management). EM covers diverse aspects of networked business and welcomes research from a technological, organizational, societal, and/or political perspective. Since EM is a methodologically pluralistic journal, quantitative and qualitative research methods are both welcome as long as the studies are methodologically sound. Conceptual and theory-development papers, empirical hypothesis testing, and case-based studies are all welcome. More information on EM's scope as well as some examples are provided in Editorial 24/3.Officially cited as: Electron Markets

【译文】电子市场（EM）是一本领先的学术期刊，为研究所有形式的网络化商业提供了一个论坛。EM认识到信息和通信技术（IT）在改变组织与客户之间互动中的变革性作用，这种作用体现在社交网络、电子商务、供应链管理或客户关系管理中。特别是，电子市场指的是在经济价值链的一个或多个层级中，多个供应商和客户为了经济目的而相互互动的网络化商业形式。作为一个广泛的概念，电子市场有许多形式：在狭义上，电子市场主要被视为具有动态价格发现机制的分配平台，涉及原子关系。流行的例子来自金融（例如，CBOT、XETRA）和能源市场（例如，EEX、ICE）。在广义上，价格发现对电子市场并不关键。这些解决方案强调长期关系和促进商业交易（例如，电子采购解决方案）以及/或知识管理（例如，产品开发、问题和事件管理）的过程。EM涵盖了网络化商业的各个方面，并欢迎从技术、组织、社会和/或政治角度的研究。由于EM是一本方法论多元的期刊，只要研究在方法论上是可靠的，定量和定性研究方法都受欢迎。概念和理论发展论文、实证假设检验和基于案例的研究都受欢迎。更多关于EM范围以及一些示例的信息可以在编辑24/3中找到。正式引用为：电子市场
