Abstract

The system of theorems, propositions and postulates which make up the 3rd theoretical framework represents what Glaser & Strauss (1967) refer to as a ‘first theoretical construct’, which now needs to undergo a process of ‘delimitation’ (ibid., p. 109ff). Reducing the ‘terminology’ and ‘densifying the text’ in this process aim at increasing the theory’s parsimony1 while at the same time widening its scope.1 The process is designed to expand a conceptual construct narrowly steeped in three cases into a more general ‘substantive theory’ with claims of validity for the subject area of international information systems.

Vorheriges Kapitel Case Three: PANALPINA International Forwarders
Nächstes Kapitel Discussion of the Theory and its Implications for Research and Practice
Fußnoten
1
Important ‘canons for assessing [the quality of] a theory’, as listed by Glaser & Strauss (1967, p. 4–5).
 
2
This is termed ‘definitional reduction’ or ‘axiomatisation’ by Zetterberg (1965, p. 94ff) and is one method for reducing a set of propositions to their ‘axiomatic’ format.
 
3
Glaser & Strauss (1967, p. 6) term for the delimitation process.
 
4
The Co-op’s ‘intent’ to develop and administer such systems from HQ is included in the count.
 
5
‘User’ in this context means ‘local user community’ i.e. all users in one geographical/organisational business unit.
 
6
This includes computers, communications technology, their operating software and middle-ware.
 
7
That is architectures with a prevalence of CENTRAL systems: in the J Lauritzen case this is a significant pre-dominance of the ‘Core’ systems; in the PANALPINA case the – very – dominant ‘Core’ systems were complemented by a strategy to increase the number of ‘Common Local’ systems.
 
8
In terms of Lewin (1938, 1952).
 
9
In Lewin’s (1938) terms, strength is a combination of the ‘Potency’ (ibid., pp. 34, 203ff) of the path the force takes and the positive or negative ‘Valence’ (ibid., pp. 84ff) of the participants’ attitudes. The nature of the force (positive or negative, constructive or destructive, synergetic or diminishing) is further conditioned by the ‘Distance’ (ibid., pp. 164ff) of their goals and expectations.
 
10
That is the extent to which the operational/transactional business processes are supported; as opposed to Control, which encompasses all performance assessment management processes supported by the IIS.
 
11
That is not in line with the degree of central control/local autonomy inherent in the – accepted – global business strategy.
 
12
After Weick (1979).
 
13
Logistics Management, Contract Warehousing, Project Management and the ‘Integrated Forwarding’ concept are examples of such ‘secondary’ products.
 
14
see Chapter 1 – Introduction.
 
15
This means in terms of theorems, theses and postulates; for their definition see the last paragraphs on p. 88
 
16
The equivalent terms in Lewin’s field theory terminology are set out in footnote 9 on p. 177
