Business Ethics Quarterly.  BEQ is a leading international and multidisciplinary scholarly journal publishing theoretical and empirical research on a broad range of issues and topics relevant to business ethics, corporate responsibility, and related subjects. It is sponsored by the Society for Business Ethics. BEQ's 2010 journal impact factor is 3.256, and it ranks 2nd out of 38 journals in the Social Science Citation Index "ethics" category.  BEQ is the highest ranking journal focused specifically on business ethics, corporate responsibility, societal impacts of business, and related topics. I was editor in chief of BEQ from 2005 until August 2011, and currently serve as senior associate editor. BEQ's current editor in chief (since August 2011) is Denis Arnold (University of North Carolina-Charlotte).  The editor and senior associate editor are assisted by associate editors Alan Strudler (Wharton), Andreas Scherer (Zürich), Guido Palazzo (HEC Lausanne), Bruce Barry (Vanderbilt), Jerry Goodstein (Washington State),  Heather Elms (American), Wayne Norman (Duke), book review editor Al Gini (Loyola Chicago), and managing editor Elizabeth Scott (Eastern Connecticut).  For more information, see the Business Ethics Quarterly website.
