The new Editorial of German Journal of Human Resource Management (GHRM) outlines how GHRM responds to current trends in academic publishing-namely, an increasing flood of publications and the flourishing of established ideas at the expense of novel, fragile concepts.
Editors-in-Chief Julia Brandl and Tanja Rabl highlight that GHRM's future in HRM scholarship lies in developing its potential as a "permeable enclave" (March, 2005). GHRM aligns a dual mission of local grounding and global reach. It emphasizes local grounding by inviting submissions rooted in the German-speaking context that explore local institutional, cultural, technological, and economic arrangements (e.g., labor laws, co-determination, the dual system of vocational training) and use local phenomena to challenge established assumptions. At the same time, it stresses global reach by welcoming submissions from around the world, actively engaging with HRM scholarship from diverse global settings, enriching global HRM debates with novel and original insights, and adhering to international research quality standards.
