‘Kreps brilliantly demonstrates how strongly IS (information systems) research has been and still is influenced by a positivist view of the world … Instead, Kreps proposes to borrow from Bergson’s and Whitehead’s process-relational philosophy, from moral philosophy and from complexity theory, to claim that the libertarian argument for the neoliberal digital capitalist society runs counter to the reality of the natural world of which we are a part.’ – Frantz Rowe, European Journal of Information Systems
