This book presents some of the most trenchant critical analyses of the widespread claims for the recent emergence of a knowledge economy and the attendant need for greater lifelong learning. The book contains two sections: first, general critiques of the limits of current notions of a knowledge economy and required adult learning, in terms of historical comparisons, socio-political construction and current empirical evidence; secondly, specific challenges to presumed relations between work requirements and learning through case studies in diverse current workplaces that document richer learning processes than knowledge economy advocates intimate. Many of the leading authors in the field are represented. There are no other books to date that both critically assess the limits of the notion of the knowledge economy and examine closely the relation of workplace restructuring to lifelong learning beyond the confines of formal higher education and related educational policies. This reader provides a distinctive overview for future studies of relations between work and learning in contemporary societies beyond caricatures of the knowledge economy.

Appelées de plus en plus à participer à des projets de développement basés sur la connaissance, les universités subissent de fortes pressions, pour se réorganiser autour de pôles d'innovation, s'ouvrant davantage vers l'extérieur et favorisant les interactions avec le territoire. Les universités, il est vrai, ont déjà fait l'objet d'études, de réflexions ou de critiques, par le passé. De nouveaux enjeux les ont remis à l'ordre du jour, un peu partout dans le monde, au point que les territoires sont amenés à se restructurer autour d'elles alors que la notion de « ville apprenante » se développe. Que faut-il voir derrière cet engouement nouveau pour les universités « porteuses » d'innovation ? Quels effets, au plan économique, social et spatial peut-on envisager ? Les expériences de 4 continents, représentés dans cet ouvrage divisé en trois parties : stratégies de développement, projets d'aménagement et nouveaux marchés, nous restituent un univers complexe où les universités sont vues comme des réservoirs de connaissances aptes à réfléchir aussi sur les compétences et les métiers à venir pour relancer la croissance. Chaque pays pourra en tirer profit.

Finland is known for its consistent progress in the economy and competitiveness, as well as the egalitarian society underneath it. Yet, the challenges experienced by Finland in the beginning of the 20th century were similar to those experienced by many countries today. Finland emerged as an independent nation in the midst of international economic and political turbulence. In spite of its remoteness, relative scarcity of natural resources, smallness of the home market and recent history characterized by wars and social cleavages, Finland transformed itself from an agriculture-based economy...

With the transition into the Knowledge Economy, a formidable series of new challenges arise within the corporate governance space. This book tackles the issue of corporate governance along two axes. Firstly, it confronts the developments in corporate governance within the context of the Knowledge Economy and all its implications in relation to the pre-eminence of intangible assets, the advent of technologies such as smartphones and advanced forms of artificial intelligence, and cultural changes associated with the incorporation of Gen Y into the workforce and the proliferation of social networks and effects such as Big Data and cyber-threats. Secondly, it highlights the challenges for multinational organizations and the tension that exists between headquarters and subsidiary offices due to the need to combine the corporation's ethical culture and corporate governance values with the institutional forces of the subsidiaries context. The combination of these two axes addressed viz a viz the relationship between senior management and the rank and file of the organization to create an ethical corporate culture leads to a completely different positioning of corporate governance and makes the book truly unique and of interest to researchers, students of corporate finance and corporate governance alongside practitioners within financial organizations and more broadly.

Today's "knowledge economies" are seeing the emergence of new paradigms for innovation and the advancement of knowledge in relation to economic activities. This report explores some key determinants of innovation and their implications for the advancement of knowledge in a particular sector – primary and secondary education. The analysis shows that there is considerable scope for certain drivers that have helped speed up innovation in other sectors to take effect in education. However, in practice, a number of basic characteristics of education systems have prevented innovation from changing this sector fundamentally. Nevertheless, educational policy makers can learn much from observing how innovation occurs and how sectors are transformed in the most knowledge intensive parts of the economy.
