Professor Frank, I agree with you on the lack of a natural accumulation
and academic re-utilization and integration of knowledge in this rare
discipline. It others ones, there is also a variety of topics but core
knowledge is more stable and re-used (people value the work's of other
people!), and consequently there is a reduced set of core models and
theories and methods, but MIS has been moved in a sick "admiration to the
number of paper's citations only published in the top journals" written
with a 600+ toefl style that has a lot of redundant ideas and extra
arguments, with a multitude of micro-theories published in top journals by
bias reasons. On System's Approach core models, I totally support this
approach like co-founder and EiC of a non-top journal but that was
endorsed by top thinkers in systems approach in its foundations stage,
given the scarcity of journals publishing papers with these methods. Ok
thanks,
Manuel
