《管理與決策經(jīng)濟學》將發(fā)表文章，將經(jīng)濟學推理應用于管理決策和管理戰(zhàn)略。管理策略關注的是管理者面對的關于如何競爭、如何成功以及如何組織以實現(xiàn)目標的實際決策。經(jīng)濟思維和分析為跨多個維度的戰(zhàn)略決策提供了重要的基礎。例如，經(jīng)濟見解可能有助于確定哪些活動需要外包，哪些活動需要在內(nèi)部執(zhí)行。它們可以幫助解開關于是什么驅(qū)動了公司之間的績效差異，以及是什么讓這些差異持續(xù)存在的問題。它們可以幫助您了解行業(yè)、組織和能力是如何發(fā)展的。它們可以幫助管理者應對動態(tài)競爭環(huán)境的復雜性和不確定性。與其他經(jīng)濟學期刊相比，該期刊的關注焦點更多的是規(guī)范而非實證，關注的是管理效率和企業(yè)盈利能力，而不是社會福利。歡迎經(jīng)濟學家、戰(zhàn)略家和其他使用經(jīng)濟推理分析商業(yè)問題的人發(fā)表文章。該期刊開放多種經(jīng)濟理論視角，包括交易成本理論、進化理論、資源基礎理論、代理理論、博弈論和行為決策理論。

Managerial and Decision Economics will publish articles applying economic reasoning to managerial decision-making and management strategy.Management strategy concerns practical decisions that managers face about how to compete, how to succeed, and how to organize to achieve their goals. Economic thinking and analysis provides a critical foundation for strategic decision-making across a variety of dimensions. For example, economic insights may help in determining which activities to outsource and which to perform internally. They can help unravel questions regarding what drives performance differences among firms and what allows these differences to persist. They can contribute to an appreciation of how industries, organizations, and capabilities evolve. They can help managers cope with the complexities and uncertainties of a dynamic competitive environment. Compared to other journals in economics, the focus of this journal is more normative than positive and the viewpoint is focused on managerial efficiency and firm profitability rather than on social welfare. Articles are welcomed from economists,strategists, and others using economic reasoning in analyzing business problems. The journal is open to a variety of economic theoretical perspectives, including transaction cost theory, evolutionary theory, resource-based theory, agency theory, game theory, and behavioral decision theory.
