Twenty years of the European information systems academy at ECIS: emergent trends and research topics

Abstract

While the Information Systems (IS) community is increasingly international, it is

A social network analysis of ICTD conferences (2006–2017)

“…For this study, the ICTD conference community consists of researchers and practitioners who have participated at least once in the ICTD series of conferences between 2006 and 2017. While the use of SNA to examine the intellectual and social dimension of various conferences (Cheong & Corbitt, 2009a, 2009bStein, Galliers, & Whitley, 2016 ;Vidgen et al, 2007) and journal articles (Chipidza & Tripp, 2018;Xu & Chau, 2006) is quite common in IS and related research domains, this paper probably is the first attempt to use SNA for extant ICTD research.…”

Formação, Disseminação e Colaboração: Internacionalização em Administração de Sistemas de Informação

“…Enquanto a comunidade de SI vem crescendo internacionalmente, é razoável esperar que a sua localização, em diferentes regiões do mundo, traga particularidades definidas localmente, tais como apelos de pesquisa, interesses e orientações para a publicação dos trabalhos (Stein, Galliers, & Whitley, 2016). Em estudo baseado na análise de citações de artigos de estudiosos alemães da área do conhecimento da Administração (Eisend & Schmidt, 2014), foi comprovado que o sucesso na estratégia de internacionalização usada por estes acadêmicos ocorria pela colaboração internacional e pela disponibilidade dos chamados recursos do conhecimento (domínio da língua estrangeira, experiência em pesquisa e conhecimento do mercado estrangeiro).…”

Academic agility in digital innovation research: The case of mobile ICT publications within information systems 2000–2014

“…8 See, for example, Galliers and Whitley (2007), Whitley and Galliers (2007) and Stein et al (2014) for analyses of research based on the Proceedings of the European Conference on Information Systems. 9 'European' journals refer here to journals published in the EU and 'US' journals to those published in the US.…”

“…We have chosen mobile ICT as a prototypical example of such an important challenge. Within the IS field, this debate is mainly conducted through journal publications, although books and conference papers also play an important role Stein et al, 2014). Based on the notion of business agility as the ability to quickly and resourcefully adapt to environmental changes (Mathiassen and Pries-Heje, 2006), we define academic agility as the ability of an academic field to quickly, rigorously, and resourcefully explore environmental changes within its mainstream academic debate.…”
