Schumpeterian Framework
- 4 stages
- 1. Conceptualisation
- The idea for a technology
- The idea for a technology
- 3. Innovation
- The commerically feasible product
- The commerically feasible product
- 4. Diffusion
- The subsequent adoption and spread of the innovation
- The subsequent adoption and spread of the innovation
- 2. Invention
- Establishment of technical feasibility
- Establishment of technical feasibility
- 1. Conceptualisation
- Sharpness of distinctions
- A debate exists as to the sharpness and rigidity of the distinctions
- The relation between these stages may change historically
- Innovation is only the beginning of the diffusion process and an innovation may be substanially changed in character in diffusion
- A debate exists as to the sharpness and rigidity of the distinctions
- Need for distinctions
- There is a relative absense in studies of information technology within information science
- Conceptual confusion in information science and information systems, results from both 1) Their
absence and 2) their presence in not fully articulated form, without reference to the clarifying
framework
- Their adoption in this context should make available a framework
which could be used to explore the socio-technical dynamic
assoicated with information technologies

- Why conceptualisation is often neglected in the framework
- One possible reason for the neglect of
conceptualisation in models of diffusion might be
its insubstantiality and elusiveness
- Least tangible of the four
- “I can call spirits from the vasty deep” “Why so
can I, or so can any man; but will they come
when you do call for them?” – (Henry IV, part 1
Shakespeare)
- One possible reason for the neglect of
conceptualisation in models of diffusion might be
its insubstantiality and elusiveness
- The conceptualisation stage can be subject to change
after the original idea has been rigorously tested for
technical feasibility due to unforeseen problems or
perhaps new features being realised during the process.
- Therefore the framework should not be seen as a direct
process from conceptualisation to diffusion, but flexible in a
way in that stages can be revisited and revised numerous
times.

- Analogy to distinctions
- Comparative distinctions made with regard to scholarly communication
- 1. Conceptualisation - Regarded as a dialogue with oneself, or informal
conversations with colleagues
- 2. Invention - Reduction to writing
- 3. Innovation - Publication
- 4. Diffusion - Adoption of a text or idea
by scholarly or other communities

conversations with colleagues
