Cross-Cultural Research in IS: An Updated Review Since 2005

Culture has been found as an important factor in Information Systems studies and culture theory has been used to explain the IT behavior of the people across nations. In this paper, we review cross-cultural studies in Information Systems for the last decade. We choose the studies from senior scholar’s basket of six journals in Information Systems. These studies are classified into two themes. The discussions of these studies and future research directions are presented in the paper.
