The information systems (IS) community continues to make inroads to enhance the use of technologies to support disaster management. The community continues to identify and extend the relevant theories, and to construct new paradigms that can be brought to bear on the adoption and diffusion of information systems for disaster management. An earlier special issue of the journal of Information Systems Frontiers in 2010 made significant contributions in this space, highlighting the need for extending coordination theory (Janssen et al. 2010), exposing the limits of several organizational theories (Bharosa et al. 2010) and setting the scene to extend diffusion theories for DM inter-organizational information systems (Fedorowicz and Gogan 2010).
