ABSTRACT
Now that I have established the concept of critical research in information systems, some of the dominant theories and also its ethical and moral background, this chapter will be dedicated to the discussion of one of the resulting problems. The narrative so far could be construed as being relatively linear and unproblematic. However, there are fundamental problems arising from the combination of ethical awareness, the critical intention to emancipate, the role of critical scholars in society and many other factors. This chapter will discuss one such issue in depth, namely the issue of emancipation across cultural boundaries.
