International information systems

 

International information systems (IIS) technology is a field where academic research is sparse. These contrasts starkly with a growing concern of practitioners who have come to regard IIS as a double threat: they are often vitally critical for the globally oriented firm, but at the same time they are perceived as difficult and risky. The areas of importance for practitioners are less well researched than others. A theory building methodology is discussed and recommended for an initial research project.

 

Global business drivers are general cultural factors and specific business factors

 

Global culture, created by TV and other global media (e.g., movies) permit cultures to develop common expectations about right and wrong, desirable and undesirable, heroic and cowardly

 

A global knowledge base--strengthened by educational advances in Latin America, China, southern Asia, and eastern Europe--also affects growth

 

Particularism, making judgments and taking action based on narrow or personal features, rejects the concept of shared global culture

 

Transborder data flow is the movement of information across international boundaries in any form

 

National laws and traditions create disparate accounting practices in various countries, impacting how profits and losses are analyzed

 


Information Technology (IT):

Information technology (IT) is the application of computers and telecommunications equipment to store, retrieve, transmit and manipulate data, often in the context of a business or other enterprise.
