Originally titled ''The Journal of Business of the University of Chicago'' when it debuted in 1928, the journal shortened its name to ''The Journal of Business'' in 1954.<ref>{{cite book |title=The Journal of business (catalog entry) |oclc=4631505 }}</ref>

Rather than keeping it as a generalist journal or narrowing its focus, the faculty of the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business decided to cease publication of the journal at the end of 2006.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.jstor.org/journal/jbusiness |title=The Journal of Business on JSTOR |website=jstor.org |language=en |access-date=2018-08-24}}</ref>
