Abstract

This paper presents the results of an analysis of the articles published by Nordic management scholars in the 15 most important business research journals during the period 1981–1992. The analysis shows that the predominance of North American scholars in these journals is massive. However, although Nordic management researchers account for only about 1% of all the authorships, they constitute an important minority in the field. These Northerners are more successful in the European journals and tend to focus mainly on accounting and organizational problems. Their frame of reference is heavily influenced by the Carnegie-Tech tradition, that is the works of Richard M. Cyert, James G. March and Herbert A. Simon. This means that their publication behaviour in international journals is rather similar to that which appears in the Scandinavian Journal of Management.
