中国信息系统的国际研究分析及对比

International Information Systems Research On China

本文以中外学者在1998—2007年间发表于国际IT/IS期刊以及国际会议上的文献为样本,系统分析了中国信息系统的国际研究现状,从作者背景、研究主题、分析层次、研究方法等方面归纳中国信息系统国际研究的特点,并与国内信息系统研究(季绍波等于2006总结)及国际信息系统研究(Vessey等于2002总结)的特点进行了比较研究。通过对比发现,发表于国际期刊上研究中国信息系统的文章大多采用国际通用的研究方法,而大陆院校学者仍然沿袭国内的选题习惯。

This paper reviews current IS research about China which has been published in international IT/IS journals and conference proceedings from 1998 to 2007.Papers by Chinese mainland authors and by overseas authors are compared in terms of research topics,research levels,and research methods.Research by these two types of authors are further compared with Chinese domestic IS research[using results presented in Ji et al.(2007)],and with international IS research[using results presented in Vessey et al.(2002)].We found that the research methods used by Chinese mainland IS researchers in international publications are very similar to those used by other international IS researchers, while their research topics are close to those in Chinese domestic publications.For the overseas authors,both the research topic profile and research methods are pretty similar with international patterns.
