Abstract Clearly and completely presenting management theories is crucial for building management theories to explain management phenomenon in China, guide management practices in China, and make high international academic impacts. From the perspective of argumentation theory, we re-define the concept of management theory based on the concept of “argument”, build an ADEL model based on PEL model to clearly and completely present the components of management theories, and propose a conceptual framework to build management theories, based on research contribution theory.
