Abstract

This introduction provides a current vision of the situation in which research on the teaching and learning of management and business is located. A review of the state of the art in business education is developed. This analysis allows us to better understand and explain the origins of the Journal of Management and Business Education (JMBE), its mission, objectives and main characteristics, which are explained below. Finally, the first issue of the magazine is introduced and sincere thanks are offered to those for having been essential in the way of its creation.
