The only duty we owe to history is to rewrite it: reflections on Bob Galliers’ article ‘A discipline for a stage?’

European Journal of Information Systems, 2008, vol. 17, issue 5, 444-447

Abstract: In an opinion paper in the preceding issue of the European Journal of Information Systems, history is used to illustrate some differences in the research plot and performance of the Information Systems field. In this response, history is rewritten to show that the differences are natural, even to be welcomed, and that an understanding of their origins is sufficient for peace to break out and for harmony to be the natural state.
