This book discusses a core question in many fields of the social
sciences, namely how to create, share and adopt new knowledge. It
creates an original space for conversation between two lines of
research that have developed largely in parallel for a long time:
social network theory and the geography of knowledge. This book
considers that relational thinking has become increasingly
important for scholars to capture societal outcomes by studying
social relations and networks, whereas the role of place, space and
spatial scales has been somewhat neglected outside an emergent
geography of knowledge. The individual contributions help integrate
network arguments of connectivity, geographical arguments of
contiguity and contextuality into a more comprehensive
understanding of the ways in which people and organizations are
constrained by and make use of space and networks for learning and
innovation. Experts in the fields of geography, sociology,
economics, political science, psychology, management and
organizational studies develop conceptual models and propose
empirical research that illustrates the ways in which networks and
geography play together in processes of innovation, learning,
leadership, and power. This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0
