Innovation Diffusion in the New Economy (eBook, PDF)

The Tacit Component

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book unites discussions of the philosophical and scientific basis of tacit knowledge.

The authors give an overview of the theories of tacit knowledge and explain how these relate to a background of philosophical, neurological and pedagogic literature. The importance of tacit knowledge for evolutionary models of innovation is analyzed raising questions of how its new role in the processes of economic and social change is accelerated by market and technological pressures.

This book is an invaluable resource for postgraduate students and professionals working in and studying the fields of political economy, organizational theory and behaviour, organizational analysis and new technology management.
