Information and Organization
Advances in information and communication technologies are associated with a wide and increasing range of social consequences, which are experienced by individuals, work groups, organizations, interorganizational networks, and societies at large. Understanding the relationships between communication, digital technologies and organizations is an increasingly important and urgent societal and scholarly concern in many disciplinary fields.Information and Organization seeks to publish original articles on the relationships between digital technologies, communication, and organizations. It seeks a scholarly understanding that is based on empirical research and builds novel theoretical contributions. A particular focus of Information and Organization is to publish qualitative and interpretive research which adopts case studies, ethnography and in-depth longitudinal empirical studies, including critical theory and science and technology studies.Papers that provoke critical thinking on important subjects are welcomed, including articles that focus on research impact and contributions to knowledge in our special section (RICK). The aim is to provide a forum that brings together innovative, reflective, and rigorous scholarship while being relevant for practice.Of special interest are contributions on the social construction of information technologies, the implications of digital technologies for innovation and organizational change, alternative organizational designs such as virtual organizations and ecosystems, ICT's for institutional and societal change, global strategy and digitalization, data driven organizations and changes in work, ethics of digital technologies and data governance. The journal seeks contributions from fields such as information systems, organization theory, history and philosophy of science and technology, practice theory, institutional theory, strategy, and communication studies.

International Journal of Information Management
The International Journal of Information Management (IJIM) is a leading outlet for high-impact research in the information systems (IS) field. It embraces an inclusive range of topics, levels of analysis, and perspectives, reflecting all facets of information systems globally.The journal focuses on:Design, development, implementation, and management of information technologies and systems in organizational and societal contexts;Strategic integration of IT in business, including IT strategy, governance, and organizational change management;Digital innovation and emerging technologies–for example, research on social media, mobile and cloud computing, digital platforms and ecosystems, big data analytics, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, blockchains, and other cutting-edge technologies and their convergence;Organiza... initiatives that enhance decision-making and business intelligence;Use, impact, and value of information systems on individuals, organizations, and society, including studies of how IS influences organizational performance and processes, user behavior and experience, economics of IT, and public or institutional policy;Organizationa... contextualized ethical, social, and policy issues that are arising in the digital era (for instance, research on data privacy, security and resilience of IT infrastructures, sustainability, digital inclusion, and the societal implications of information technology).By covering this broad spectrum of topics, IJIM provides a comprehensive forum for both theoretical advances and practical insights into contemporary information systems in business contexts.Theoretical and Methodological Rigor IJIM is committed to the highest standards of academic rigor and scholarly contribution, publishing only work that is innovative, insightful, and rigorously developed. Specifically:We seek papers that make strong academic contributions, whether by building new theory or significantly extending existing frameworks. The journal values research that develops a scholarly understanding based on empirical evidence while also offering novel theoretical insights. Papers that do not advance theory or design in a significant way will be desk rejected. Each paper is expected to have a clear theoretical or design science grounding and to articulate its contribution to the broader IS literature, whether it be by challenging existing assumptions, integrating streams of research, unveiling new relationships and constructs, or designing new artifacts.We welcome diverse research methodologies and encourage authors to employ the approach best suited to their research question. Submissions may be quantitative (e.g. large-scale surveys, experiments, analytics), qualitative (e.g. case studies, ethnographies, interviews), design science (artifacts and solutions demonstrating IT innovation), or analytical/modeling studies.While we welcome research that draws on perspectives from computer science, management, economics, psychology, sociology, organization science, and other related disciplines, our focus is on information systems and information management. Any papers narrowly focused (e.g., marketing or agriculture) will be desk rejected. Novel combinations of theories or methods that address complex IS phenomena are welcomed. Regardless of approach, all submissions must demonstrate methodological rigor, sound analysis, and validity of results. The journal ensures a rich methodological plurality that advances the IS field’s knowledge base.We welcome submissions of the article types below –Research ArticlesFull-length, theoretically grounded manuscripts that advance knowledge in information and management through rigorous conceptual development and empirical validation. Submissions should clearly align with the journal’s scope and mission.Research Methods ArticlesThese articles focus on advancing the practice of doing research. This includes papers that introduce or refine methodologies (quantitative, qualitative, or computational, including AI-enabled methods), discuss innovations in data collection or analysis, or reflect on research design, theory building, and scholarly inquiry.Theory and Review ArticlesThese submissions offer integrative reviews of existing literature and develop frameworks that organize knowledge and guide future research. Authors are encouraged to identify gaps, evaluate theoretical contributions, and propose novel directions or conceptual models that shape the evolution of the field.Research NotesShort-form articles that provide timely and focused contributions, such as replication studies, critical re-evaluations of past findings, or exploratory research that challenges prevailing assumptions. This category welcomes contrarian perspectives and constructive critique that fosters healthy academic debate.A Leading Outlet for Cutting-Edge Scholarship As a premier journal in information systems and information management, IJIM aspires to publish only the highest quality scholarship in the discipline. We are dedicated to maintaining a rigorous peer-review process and upholding ethical publication standards to ensure excellence and integrity in the research we disseminate. The journal seeks out groundbreaking and forward-looking studies that push the boundaries of current knowledge and explore emerging frontiers in information systems research. Our goal is to remain at the forefront of the field, by attracting influential research that will set scholarly agendas and guide future inquiry. In line with this goal, IJIM promotes innovative and theory-driven research that is also relevant and insightful for global audiences of scholars. Through its broad scope and unwavering commitment to rigor, IJIM positions itself as a premier venue for cutting-edge IS research. We invite authors to submit their best work to IJIM, confident that our journal provides an authoritative platform to advance the state of knowledge and practice in information systems and to shape the future direction of the field. Open Data PolicyInternational Journal of Information Management is committed to research transparency and reproducibility through its Open Data policy. Authors are required to:Deposit their research data in a relevant data repositoryInclude appropriate citations and links to these datasets in their articleProvide a Research Data Availability StatementIf data sharing is not possible due to ethical, legal, or proprietary constraints, authors must include a detailed statement explaining why the research data cannot be shared.
