In order to thoroughly implement the Opinions on Deepening Reform and Cultivating World-Class Scientific and Technological Journals (2019) issued by the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST), the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Science and Technology, as well as the Opinions on Promoting the Prosperity and Development of Academic Journals (2021) jointly released by the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Science and Technology, and to address the gap in China’s academic publishing landscape in the field of marine economic management, Marine Economics and Management—an international academic journal—has been co-founded by leading scholars and experts from China and abroad.

Marine Economics and Management plays a vital role in aggregating world-class research achievements in marine economic management from both domestic and international sources, focusing on cutting-edge topics and emerging trends in the field, guiding frontier research directions globally and domestically, disseminating the latest academic advances and teaching-research information, and building a bridge for international scholarly exchange. The journal significantly contributes to elevating the quality of marine economic management research in China, enhancing the discourse power and global influence of Chinese scholars, strengthening national scientific and technological competitiveness and cultural soft power, and advancing the construction of China’s spirit, values, and strength—thus holding profound practical significance.

To date, the journal has been indexed in 17 international academic databases, including ProQuest, EBSCO, Google Scholar, WorldCat, and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).
