The debate on rigor-relevance in information systems research have risen important questions for establishment of IS discipline. Many scholars within IS discipline have been concerned about the nature of and the future of the discipline. Izak Benbasat and Bob Zmud have provided some notable opinions on the "identity crisis" we believe faces IS discipline. Their papers had a great influence on the argument about IS discipline whether for better or for worse. Then, by a critical survey mainly in their paper, this paper explores a road of establishing IS research as a discipline.
