Abstract
In this paper, bibliometric (co-citation analysis) and social network analysis techniques are used to investigate the intellectual pillars of the technology management literature as reported in Technovation. Network analysis tools are also used to show that the research agenda of scholars from different parts of the world differ substantially from each other, and it is argued that such differences may have exacerbated the delays experienced in developing technology management as a respected academic discipline.

A new form of document coupling called co-citation is defined as the frequency with which two documents are cited together, and clusters of co- cited papers provide a new way to study the specialty structure of science.

Cocitation analysis of authors offers a new technique that might contribute to the understanding of intellectual structure in the sciences and possibly in other areas to the extent that those areas rely on serial publications.

The results suggest that MIS research is not well-grounded in organization theory nor have MIS research results been widely diffused in the organizational literature, and suggestions for developing a better link between MIS and organizational theory are presented.

It is argued that a perception of technology should take into account the human aspects of technology, the irrational view of technology as socially constructed, should contribute to the new, nonhierarchical organisation, and make it possible to use the complexity and diversity of the business environment proactively.

The ACA suggests that the research of scholarly communication is not enough to be their common denomi nator: sociologists and information scientists mostly stay in their own respective territories; as the feasibility of ACA is evaluated in the light of the results, the weaknesses of the method become evident.
