This book develops the notion of 'knowledge cultures' as a basis
for understanding the possibilities of education and development in
the age of knowledge capitalism. 'Knowledge cultures' refers to the
cultural preconditions in the new production of knowledge and their
basis in shared practices, embodying preferred ways of doing things
often developed over many generations. These practices also point
to the way in which cultures have different repertoires of
representational and non-representational forms of knowing. The
book discusses knowledge cultures in relation to claims for the new
economy, as well as cultural economy and the politics of
postmodernity. It focuses on national policy constructions of the
knowledge economy, 'fast knowledge' and the role of the so-called
'new pedagogy' and social learning under these conditions.
