Notes: Considers the potential role of anthropology as a source disciplinefor information systems. Although anthropology has been largelyneglected in the IS research literature, it is argued that importantinsights can be gained by adopting an anthropological perspective oninformation systems phenomena. Illustrates the value of ananthropological perspective by looking at the relationship betweeninformation technology and organizational culture. Shows that theconcept of culture has generally been used rather narrowly in the ISliterature, and argues that a more critical, anthropological view of therelationship between IT and organizational culture is required.
