After paradim: Why mixing-methodology theorising fails and how to make it work again (2011)
Journal Article
Zhu, Z. (2011). After paradim: Why mixing-methodology theorising fails and how to make it work again. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 62(4), 784-798. https://doi.org/10.1057/jors.2010.31

Combining multiple methodologies works in practice, but not yet in theory. One of the reasons is that current theorising is dominated by a paradigm mentality, preoccupied with wholesale philosophical legitimation. 'Paradigm' and the associated 'incom...
