Knowledge Entanglements

This book looks at the complexity of knowledge. It takes into account diverse disciplines such as economics, social sciences, international business, and organization studies. The authors focus on knowledge internationally from a macro to a more micro level, from the state to households, from knowledge production to knowledge consumption, lifting the veil on knowledge complexities. By making the complexities more transparent, the authors enrich readers’ understanding and illuminate their perception of knowledge as a key factor in the development of the 21st century world.
