https://www.academia.edu/7322462/Call_for_papers_IJHRMs_Special_Issue_on_Muslim_diaspora_in_the_West_whither_international_HRM 

This SI seeks to enhance awareness of the complexity of the Muslim diaspora at work in the West in order to crumble and tease out the dissonance that exists in organizations with reference to Muslims. Specifically, the SI revolves around the following question: "What are the positive and challenging international HRM issues facing the Muslim diaspora and organizations in the West?" The aim is to present and synthesize research on international HRM (IHRM)-related issues pertaining to Muslim workers in Western countries (e.g., UK and other parts of Europe, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand) and may include the cultural and organizational contexts, sourcing HR for competitive global markets, training and development, career management, Muslim perspectives on performance management, and approaches to staffing. 

Submissions for this SI may involve qualitative and/or quantitative methodologies, include innovative theoretical and empirical insights, case studies and examples of conducting IHRM research on and with the Muslim diaspora in one or more Western societies including within-country and cross-country studies. The SI editors will be pleased to discuss ideas for manuscripts via email, and such inquires may be directed to BOTH editors at j.syed@hud.ac.uk and edwina.pio@aut.ac.nz
