Abstract

As the French-speaking information systems research community grows in size, the need to understand its specificities is more and more pressing. This paper sheds the light on the structure of the social network that underpins the French information systems academic society « Association Information et Management » (AIM). It draws on an analysis of the co-authorship network in the « Systèmes d'Information et Management » (SIM) outlet, and at the conference AIM. This study of the social network, a missing piece in our understanding of the specificities of the French community, addresses three questions: What is the structure of the social network of co-authors? Who are the central players? And what factors of the professional path of the researchers influence their degree of centrality in the network? The purpose of this study is to contribute to the discussion on the specificities of the French-speaking information systems research community in order to reinforce its collective identity. It is also a mean through which its actors will question their own co-authorship practices, as well as the role they have in this social network of research.
