“…Considering cross-cultural differences among consumers, Nelson and Clark Jr. (1994) argued that, "From a theoretical perspective, a cross-cultural approach to information systems research has the potential to enhance our knowledge by widening our field of vision and questioning existing theories." Culture has an impact on behavioral traits which are not only associated with technological reformation but also associated with behavioral and social attitudinal changes.…”

Service delivery through mobile-government (mGov): Driving factors and cultural impacts. Information Systems Frontiers http://dx. AbstractThe mobile-Government (mGov) service system is conducted through an open network, and it is virtual. This service mode and pattern change inevitably necessitates a behavioral change in citizen attitudes and intentions. Nevertheless, this new pattern of service delivery through mGov has hardly been systematically investigated by any researchers. The objective of this current research is twofold. First, we attempt to reveal the sources of beliefs for developing intention toward the mGov (ITM) system. Then, as the second objective, we investigate cultural influence as the reason for a difference in consumer attitudes and intentions toward mGov. In this regard, the empirical study was conducted in Bangladesh and the USA, which have potential differences in the cultural traits listed by Hofstede. From our statistical analysis, we have identified the sources of beliefs for both Bangladeshi and USA consumers. We observed clear differences in sources of beliefs and their influence on attitudes leading to intention, which demonstrates support for our second objective which was designed to verify the cultural impacts on beliefattitude relations. We understand that these different sources of beliefs influence cognitive, affective, and connative attitudes toward mGov in different ways.

“…Hofstede (1980) defined four dimensions of national culture: individualismcollectivism, power distance, uncertainty avoidance, and masculinity-femininity. There are important precedents in the study of the effect of national culture on IT management: Nelson and Clark (1994) proposed a research agenda of the crosscultural impact on IS management; Shore and Venkachalam (1995) analyzed differences in systems analysis and design related to culture. In other cases, the relationship between culture and technology acceptance (Kwon and Chidambaran, 1998) and between culture and group support systems adoption (Davison and Jordan, 1998) has been the object of analysis.…”

There are numerous studies in the management literature that analyze specifc aspects of the implementation of information technology (IT) in organizations. Meanwhile, the global IT management area has emerged as a dynamic field of investigation of IT impact in a global environment. However, after reviewing the management /international business literature and the global IT literature, we detect the need to integrate the theoretical frameworks of both streams in order to advance in this field. As a result, we connect the areas of advance in IT general management with the main lines of research in global IT management. The synthesis of both fields allows us to suggest new areas of research that we discuss in the final section.
