IFIP WG 8.2 Working Conference: "Information Systems and Qualitative Research" Philadelphia, USA May 31 - June 3, 1997 =20 Call for Papers
This conference is the third in a series of meetings devoted to research methods in information systems. The preceding two meetings, in Manchester (1984) and Copenhagen (1990), have had major impacts on the course of research in the information systems field; their proceedings, published in the form of edited books*, continue to be regularly cited.
We encourage people to submit research papers as well as proposals for panels and tutorials. Papers, panels, and tutorials may cover any aspect of qualitative research in information systems. The following list is illustrative, not exhaustive, of different types of submissions appropriate for this conference:
=B7 empirical papers that take a qualitative approach in studying an information systems topic (such as outsourcing, group decision-making, electronic communications, systems development, etc.)
=B7 theoretical or conceptual papers that focus on the development of a qualitative methodology itself as the topic, in the context of research in the information systems field
=B7 papers, panels, and tutorials on how to do qualitative research in the information systems field
=B7 papers, panels, and tutorials on how to teach qualitative research in the information systems field
=B7 papers about the relationship between qualitative information systems research and qualitative research in other fields
=B7 panels or papers that examine the bearing that the philosophy and history of science (and of social science) has on information systems and qualitative research
Submitted papers must not have been previously presented or published and must not be under consideration for presentation or publication elsewhere.
Submissions must be received by September 1, 1996 and notice of acceptance will be given in November. The deadline for the final versions of accepted papers is January 1997.
