In celebration of this milestone, we are planning a special issue of the journal, to be published in March 2012, with research articles that consider the strategic nature of information systems, and the processes central to IS strategy and strategizing. Critically, we wish to attract contributions that will reinvigorate the SIS research agenda, establishing new research directions for SIS. We are looking for papers that speak well beyond the IS field in terms of outlining the trajectory of SIS research including how that research will have high impact in fields related to ours. In line with JSIS’s trans-disciplinary approach, contributions from and with colleagues in other disciplines are welcome. Our hope is that the issue would attract the interest of scholars from many fields, establishing a strong foundation for future work.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Any paper that is accepted for publication, but that is not ready for the special issue, will be published in a subsequent issue of JSIS.
