Introduction to the special series of papers on informing each other: Bridging the gap between researcher and practitioners

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

As an applied discipline, the gap between IS theory and practice is a potentially worrying one. This special series focuses on this gap, and the papers published consider the problems in some detail and how they might be addressed from a high level view and also in the context of specific initiatives which have been undertaken successfully. The issue is framed by this paper which considers the bipolar gap between theory and practice, a futile scenario in which both poles are ultimately cold.
