Putting forward a comprehensive view of knowledge with a specific
perspective on place and space, this book provides a new
perspective on the globalisation of knowledge. Crossing
disciplinary boundaries, the principal agenda of this volume is to
open up a perspective 'beyond knowledge' - i.e. beyond the
interpretation of knowledge as scientific-technical knowledge.
Author Martina Fuchs introduces further kinds of knowledge and
interpretation which influence managements' perception of
globalisation and therefore the knowledge which is going global.
She refers to knowledge in the sense of experiences, competencies
in the production and labour process, as well as mutually shared
mental constructs which are embedded in a context of understanding
and interpretation. Exploring beyond the meaning of worldwide
knowledge as general open access knowledge, this book also
discusses barriers to knowledge, problems of transfer, and the
influence of governance and control.
