Abstract

This book argues that the current international intellectual property rights regime, led by the World Trade Organization (WTO), has evolved over the past three decades toward overemphasizing private interests and seriously hampering public interests in access to knowledge and innovation diffusion. This approach concentrates on tangible and codified knowledge creation and diffusion in research and development (R&D) that can be protected via patents and other intellectual property rules and regulations. In terms of global policy initiatives, however, it is becoming increasingly clear that the WTO in particular is mostly a conflict-resolution facility rather than a global governance body able to generate cooperation and steer international coordinated policy action. At the same time, rent extraction and profits streaming from legal hyperprotection have become pervasively important for firm strategies to compete in a globalized marketplace. "Knowledge Governance: Reasserting the Public Interest" offers a novel approach - knowledge governance - in order to move beyond the current regime.

Abstract

Intangible value leads to new insights and ideas, and higher levels of creativity and innovative thinking. Personal knowledge capital focuses on the knowledge worker, knowledge creation, and third generation knowledge management. A focus on the 'inner and outer' aspects of personal knowledge capital creates a balanced approach in order to produce creative solutions. As such this forms part of a synthesis of mind versus body thinking in relation to knowledge creation theory within knowledge management. This title is divided into two sections: the inner and outer path. The inner path focuses on

Abstract

Aimed at library practitioners and academics of all levels, this book explores the exciting area of intellectual capital management in Libraries. The presence of intellectual capital in libraries is largely intangible; however, in the economy of knowledge we must constantly make informed decisions regarding non-tangible, non-monetary, invisible resources in order to better understand their possible usages, structure, production and value. Intellectual capital-based library management is a key issue, fostering innovation that improves a library's operations and services. Intellectual capital has become the buzzword of knowledge-based economies, and is the ultimate source of competitive advantage. This book provides guidelines, methods and techniques for managing intellectual capital in a library environment. Analysis is accompanied by examples and case studies for intellectual capital utilization in libraries. New knowledge and skills are a prerequisite for library management practitioners and researchers in order to fully realize intellectual capital.
