The Abramson Awards

Each year since 1986, The Editorial Board of Business Economics reviews the feature articles published in Business Economics in the four issues ending in July of that year and votes to select those considered exceptional. Upon their recommendation, the Board of Directors of NABE presents to the authors the Abramson Award for the best article and Abramson scrolls for outstanding articles. These awards commemorate Adolph Abramson, the founder and first President of NABE.
