The book, Amfiteatru Economic - Year XX, describes the process of becoming an academic publication twenty years after the appearance of the first issue. Testimonies of the personalities who founded the Amfiteatru Economic Journal, as well as some of those who contributed along the way to strengthening its prestige, are evoked. The main important moments in the evolution of the Journal are presented. A turning point was the entry of the journal into the mainstream of academic publications internationally with its indexation in 2008 by Thomson Reuters Services in the most comprehensive and prestigious database for academic publications, known today as the Web of Science Core Collection. At the same time, the paper includes statistical analyses and scientometrics illustrating the qualitative progress achieved by the Journal over time. An important role had, in this respect, the responsible performance of all editorial activities, an active online presence through the Journal's website, consistent respect for the mission and declared values. The book also describes the efforts made by the editorial committee to attract recognized scientific personalities and strengthen the Journal's community, including through meetings and collaborations with different other academic communities, as well as through partnerships with international conference organizers. The volume presents an experience rich in useful lessons for all those interested in academic publishing, especially for the collectives that initiate new publications. In the 108-year history of the Academy of Economic Studies, Amfiteatru Economic - Year XX is a unique book, because it is the only book about a journal.
