A chapter in Information Systems Outsourcing, 2009, pp 241-253 from Springer

Abstract: At the end of the nineteenth century a new transport and data infrastructure enabled the shift from small focused companies operating in market based networks towards vertical integrated companies. However during the beginning of the twenty-first century, the ICT infrastructural revolution (Internet, World Wide Web) reversed this shift by outsourcing, breaking up the vertical integrated companies again in market based loosely coupled business networks.
