Abstract :
In this paper bibliometric techniques (citation and a factor analysis of co-citations) are used to investigate the intellectual pillars of the technology management literature. Similar techniques are also used to explore differences in the research agendas of UK, European, North American and rest of the World scholars, and it is argued that such differences may have exacerbated the delays experienced in developing technology management as a respected academic discipline.
