Abstract
We address the question: how does time feature in INVs? Applying a qualitative theory of time (Clark, 1990), we present an overview of emergent temporal themes from an investigation of Australian INVs. Understanding how these temporal forms interplay will assist in developing explanations of the growth and development of INVs. We advocate event-driven, longitudinal studies (Van de Ven and Engleman, 2004; Aldrich, 2001) as necessary in accounting for the temporal dynamics required for building theory on the development and evolution of the INV.
