T1 - If e-business is different, then so is research in e-business
AU - Clarke, Roger
PY - 2003
Y1 - 2003
N2 - Information systems research is challenging enough, but information systems research in the e-business domain presents even greater difficulties, because its characteristics are in direct conflict with the implicit assumptions underlying most academic research. Approaches are suggested whereby relevant research into e-business can be undertaken. The delivery of real-world value while achieving sufficient rigour to satisfy the guardians of academic standards will, however, remain problematical.
