Abstract
This paper identifies the researches that have had the greatest impact on the Information Systems (IS) discipline and analyses the changes that have taken place in the intellectual structure of this discipline within the ongoing paradigmatic debates between Europe and North America. The methodology applies citation analysis and social network analysis to the articles published in four European and North American journals with the highest impact factors in the IS field. The findings of the study reveal a significant difference between the research styles and publication patterns of European and North American research traditions.
Keywords:
- citation analysis,
- social network,
- information systems
Résumé
L'objectif de cet article est d'identifier les recherches qui ont eu le plus grand impact sur la discipline des Systèmes d'Information et d'analyser les changements intervenus dans la structure intellectuelle de cette discipline dans le cadre des débats paradigmatiques en cours entre l'Europe et l'Amérique du Nord. La méthodologie est basée sur l'analyse des citations et l'analyse des réseaux sociaux qui sont appliquées aux articles publiés dans deux grandes revues européennes et nord-américaines. Les résultats de l'étude révèlent qu'il existe une différence significative entre les styles de recherche et les modèles de publication des traditions de recherche européennes et nord-américaines.
