The history of UEG’s Journal of Administration: progress and challenges

Abstract Scientific journals are important channels adopted by researchers to disseminate the results of their studies. In the area of Administration, this communication becomes important insofar as it disseminates knowledge in the field of management of public and private organizations, the applicability of which may result in society’s development. This article describes the history of the UEG Journal of Administration (RAUEG) in its eight years of existence, based on the analysis of the general data of the publications, to show the advances and challenges faced. The 20 editions published in the period 2010-2017 totaled 132 articles by researchers linked to several Brazilian research and higher education institutions, with most publications in the areas of economics (18%), marketing (17%) and management (13%). Even with the advances made since its creation, there is a need to overcome the barriers that prevent the journal from reaching the level of quality achieved by the major Brazilian journals in the area.

摘要 学术期刊是研究者传播研究成果的核心渠道。在管理学领域，学术传播的价值在于向公共与私营组织管理范畴传递知识，而此类知识的应用可有效推动社会发展。本文基于刊发稿件的整体数据分析，梳理了《UEG管理学刊》（RAUEG）创刊八年来的发展脉络，以展现其取得的进展与面临的现实挑战。2010年至2017年间，该刊累计出版20期，共收录来自巴西多所科研与高等教育机构研究者的132篇论文，其中刊载占比最高的三大研究领域依次为经济学（18%）、市场营销学（17%）与管理学（13%）。尽管自创刊以来已取得诸多实质性进展，但该刊仍需破除现存壁垒，方能达到巴西本土该领域主流期刊的质量水准。
