Regular articles accepted for publication in JETK must have implications for new economy operations managers based on one or more of a variety of research methodologies. JETK also publishes insightful meta-analyses of the economics and technologies knowledge literature, conceptual/theoretical studies with implications for practice, comments on past articles, studies concerning the economics and technologies knowledge field itself, and other such relevant matters. The primary audience includes researchers who are interested in advancing the economics and technologies knowledge field, academics, Ph.D. students and practitioners who have a concern for keeping abreast of the state of the art in Knowledge-based Economy. The journal presents to this audience the concepts, theories, economics and technologies knowledge perspectives that address current cutting-edge issues in Knowledge-based Economy. Accordingly, the aim of JETK is to enhance the field of economics and technologies knowledge and develop general theory, typically through the identification, analysis, and theorization of real Knowledge-based Economy problems. JETK seeks research that can help the audience develop a better conceptual base for understanding Knowledge based Economy. The focus of articles for JETK should be on the economics and technologies situation or the theory being studied, the techniques solution being developed or used. The journal is not exclusive and covers related general topics. Vol. 1.
