Knowledge commons facilitate voluntary private interactions in
markets and societies. These shared pools of knowledge consist of
intellectual and legal infrastructures that both enable and
constrain private initiatives. This volume brings together
theoretical and empirical approaches that develop and apply the
Governing Knowledge Commons framework to the evolution of various
kinds of shared knowledge structures that underpin exchanges of
goods, services, and ideas. Chapters offer vivid and illuminating
case studies that illustrate this conceptual framework. How did
pooling scientific knowledge enable the Industrial Revolution? How
do social networks underpin the credit system enabling the Agra
footwear market? How did the market category Scotch whisky emerge
and who has access to it? What is the potential of
blockchain-ledgers as shared knowledge repositories? This volume
demonstrates the importance of shared knowledge in modern society.
