| Tiivistelmä: | This article identifies and explores two network metaphors organising the research questions and subsequent research contributions within the research field. The name the two metaphors 'the network as a marriage' and 'the network as a business system'. Furthermore, shown is evidence of how metaphors guide towards asking specific questions and giving specific answers. The argument is that these two metaphors leave certain, less-obvious or taken-for-granted aspects unexplored. |
