A Comparative Study on the Logistics Research between International and Korean Journals

초록

This study aims to compare and analyze differences and similarities between some Korean and international logistics-related journals. To this end, this study reviewed academic journal articles published between 2007 and 2011 in three international journals. A total of 990 articles were reviewed and categorized in terms of research topics, research methods, and analytical techniques, and subsequently compared. This study is, to the authors' knowledge, the first attempt to evaluate and compare prestigious international journals and Korean journals in the logistics-related research field similar to studies undertaken in scientific journals. The differences and similarities revealed in this study will help logistics researchers understand the interaction and communication between international and Korean journals, and how they can be used to develop logistics research at both the international and local levels.
