KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT ORIENTED ENTERPRISE - COMPREHENSIVE LITERATURE REVIEW

The concept of knowledge economy refers to the ecosystem in which the most used way of growth is directly linked to access to quality information. On the other hand, knowledge management at organizational level prioritizes increasing the value and improving various processes and products at company level by creating new knowledge, absorbing knowledge from the ecosystem, managing it at organizational level and disseminating it. This paper aims to carry out an extensive literature review by explaining the different characteristics of knowledge management oriented enterprise. Moreover, this study will see the benefits and implications of applying knowledge-based management for facilitating product and process innovation, enhancing human resources management practices, as well as opening new clustering opportunities for a business organization. The methodology used was based on a comprehensive literature review of articles identified in international databases according to the keywords specified in this paper, while the results of the study are represented by the identification of a potential model for a knowledge management oriented enterprise.

Towards Better Balanced IPRs: Improving Access to Health through Better Access to Education

This is an excerpt from a larger work on biotechnology patents and access to healthcare looking to provide an alternative, rather indirect solution that might improve the whole IPRs environment and ease the longstanding strife between access to health and patent protection. This paper argues that increase of the overall standard in developing and least developed countries through provision of better education, in turn, supported by IPRs resources, can contribute to better access to healthcare and novel patented medicines. For this purpose, an analytical method is used going through various approaches to IPRs ranging from public-private interests, information and patents, individualism and IPRs as well as looking into the concept of knowledge economy. Human rights, albeit the common battleground, deserve their rightful place in this paper, however, they are not directly addressed to leave room for the other aspects mentioned. It concludes with the findings that IPRs contribution to education might be beneficial for both IPRs holders and the general society. This article derives from a doctoral dissertation “Biotechnology Patent Protection in the Information Era” to be defended in the spring term of 2022-2023 at the Istanbul Commerce University (Istanbul Ticaret Üniversitesi).

On Some Aspects of the European Knowledge Economy

We survey some of the consequences of the managerialism of science and education as practiced in European countries and its main results: the Bologna declaration and the Bologna process. One notable feature of this process is the gradual introduction of currently fashionable management terms into school curricula. These linguistic changes are the direct result of the neoliberal philosophy behind the concept of knowledge economy, namely, that all sciences must justify their economic value; moreover, the introduction of such terms is via government “strategic documents” that are never the result of a democratic public debate. As a case in point, we examine two such strategic documents issued by the Bulgarian ministry of education.

ГЛОБАЛЬНЫЕ ТРЕНДЫ И ТЕНДЕНЦИИ СТАНОВЛЕНИЯ ЭКОНОМИКИ ЗНАНИЙ В СИСТЕМЕ МИРОВОЙ ЭКОНОМИКИ

The article is a comprehensive study of the concept, key determinants and features of the formation of the knowledge economy in modern conditions. The contextual characteristics of the concept of “knowledge” are given in accordance with the methodological approaches used. The role of knowledge in the formation of a new type of economy, which has become a qualitatively new stage in the development of modern society, is shown. The key provisions of the concept of knowledge economy are characterized. The evolution of the concepts and definitions of the knowledge economy is analyzed and its key essential features are highlighted. It is concluded that the knowledge economy can be considered in a broad and narrow sense. In a broad sense, the knowledge economy is understood as a type of economic organization of society in which knowledge is the key resource and it transforms the entire structure of the economy, the quality of other resources, the nature and technology of production, the entire system of production relations, the volumes and characteristics of the results produced. In the narrow sense, the knowledge economy is understood as the sphere of economic activity directly involved in the production and dissemination of knowledge. The analysis made it possible to highlight the global megatrends of the transition of countries to the knowledge economy, each of which is influenced by the main vectors of the development of science and technology. Including the increase in international trade in high-tech goods and high-tech services; the growth of international migration of highly qualified personnel in the context of an intensified struggle for talents and competencies; development of national higher education systems in the context of globalization of the world market of educational services, etc. It is shown that the transition to a knowledge economy also generates new trends in the development of national economies. Despite the significant differentiation of countries, the direction of development of individual components of the knowledge economy is more or less universal and reflects global trends. The author drew attention to the need for further development of the concept of the knowledge economy, due to radical changes in the technological basis of the modern economy; demographic structural shifts, changes in the human lifestyle; the need to solve management tasks at various levels in the new conditions; growth and complexity of the structure of human needs.

МЕТОДОЛОГІЧНІ ОСНОВИ ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ МІЖНАРОДНОГО МАРКЕТИНГУ ВИСОКИХ ТЕХНОЛОГІЙ

The paper explores the key approaches to shaping the methodology for the study of high technology international marketing. The theoretical background for the presented paradigm of high technology international marketing is the synthesis of the following concepts and theories: the informatization theory; the globalization theory; the property rights theory; the high-tech manufacturing concept; the concept of environmentally friendly goods and services; social and ethical marketing concept; the concept of high-tech marketing; the concept of knowledge economy; the concept of sustainable development; the marketing concept. Given the high complexity and challenges in managing a high-tech business development, a number of basic approaches have been suggested, in particular: systemic, functional, integrated, communication and information-based, dynamic and strategic. The basic principles of international high-tech marketing development have been identified, i.e. unity; proportionality; optimal correlation; adequacy; identity; objectivity; thoroughness; flexibility; levelling; disclosure and duality. The main research hypothesis presented argues that international high technology marketing facilitates a mechanism for ensuring the development of high-tech industries and successfully contributes to boosting the processes of globalization and integration within the Ukraine’s economy.

Análisis de la dinámica de los indicadores de la economía del conocimiento desde la perspectiva empresarial en el corredor industrial Silao, León, San Francisco del Rincón en Guanajuato, México

The concept of knowledge economy proposed by international organizations has led to transformation in the analysis of classical economics in order to explain the dynamics of development at local and regional levels under the concept of intangible assets (knowledge). The focus of this article is to analyze the behavior of some indicators of the level of the development of knowledge economy in a sample of companies in the Silao-Leon-San Francisco del Rincón corridor located in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. To that end, the research team design a survey based on Methodology of Knowledge Economy (MEC) which combines some dimensions of the Research and Technological development survey (INEGI-CONACY, 2014). The results obtained from a total of 67 companies show that there is a low participation in the indicators of the knowledge economy despite the presence of important industrial clusters. It is possible to predict that situation will change in time considering that the drag dynamics, triggered by the supply chain will have an effect on the local economy in the search for the strengthening of the human capital, the investment in informational techniques, the certification of processes which are already seen as part of the competitive advantages of the region and which generates bonding and innovation opportunities among regional development agents.

An Economic Perspective to Intellectual Property

Intellectual Property can be seen from different economic perspectives. On the one hand knowledge economy and the relation to IP provide the Macro-Economic-Perspective and on the other hand the Micro-Economic-Perspective analyses the IP-situation in a Knowledge Economy for a firm. Thus, this paper will try to elaborate on these two perspectives and study the importance of IP management for the effective realisations of these economic perspectives. This paper has been divided into two parts, the first part tries to elaborate on the concept of Knowledge economy and its characterisation, the second part tries to justify the economic rationale for IP protection and gives an overview of the micro and macro-economic utilization of IP protection.

ЕКОНОМІКА ЗНАНЬ ЯК ПАРАДИГМА СТАЛОГО СОЦІАЛЬНО-ЕКОНОМІЧНОГО РОЗВИТКУ ЕКОНОМІКИ ТА СУСПІЛЬСТВА

В статті розглянуто історичні передумови розвитку економіки знань та її впливу на формування концепції сталого розвитку економіки та суспільства як парадигми сучасного розвитку. Досліджено процес зародження та становлення економіки знань як науки, в якій першочергову роль відіграють інформація, та отримані на основі неї знання. Основою такої економіки є створення, розповсюдження та використання знань для забезпечення свого сталого розвитку та забезпечення конкурентоспроможності. Розглянуто сутність концепції постіндустріального суспільства в якій основний пріоритет в економіці перейшов від здебільшого виробництва товарів до надання послуг, проведенню досліджень, організації системи освіти та підвищення якості життя, а також досліджено внесок основних її представників (Ф. Махлуп, Т. Умесао, М. Порат, Й. Масуд, Р. Катц) у розвиток даної концепції. Відповідно до цієї концепції виробництво, розподіл і споживання інформації розглядається як переважна сфера економічної діяльності суспільства, роль і значення промисловості об’єктивно скорочується. Визначено зміст концепції інформаційного суспільства, згідно якої в суспільство характеризується великим обсягом якісної інформації та різноманітними засобами її розповсюдження та досліджено її вплив на формування концепції економіки знань. Проаналізовано основні етапи становлення економіки знань та вплив теорії людського капіталу та теорії інтелектуального капіталу на формування економіки знань. Розглянуто процес зародження та становлення концепції сталого розвитку суспільства, згідно якого розвиток можливий тільки за умови вирішення економічних, соціальних та екологічних проблем. Розглянуто виникнення поняття «сталий розвиток» та його характеристика. Визначено основні історичні етапи які вплинули на формування та становлення концепції сталого розвитку економіки та суспільства. Обґрунтовано необхідність дослідження сталого розвитку суб’єктів економічних відносин на засадах економіки знань.

A Base Nacional Comum Curricular e o conhecimento como commodity

This article problematizes the epistemological dimension that underpins the proposal of the National Curriculum Standard. In doing so, it discusses the conceptions of competences and knowledge that are presented in MEC’s document exploring the concept of knowledge economy as the matrix of the curricular proposal. This makes possible to structure and understand the curricular conception that one wishes to implant in Brazilian schools. The conclusion was that every discursive apparatus of the right to education does nothing more than constitute competitiveness as the foundation of education. The impoverishment of knowledge, reduced to mere competence, does not operate for qualified life by culture, but for economic productivism, since an entire ethical and aesthetic dimension is neglected in the educational process. Keywords: curriculum, National Curricular Common Base, knowledge economy, epistemology.

Evolution of the Knowledge Economy: a Historical Perspective with an Application to the Case of Europe

The goal of the article is to explore the evolution of original concept of knowledge economy based on science intensive production sectors toward service type economies which significantly changed the role of scientific research and technological innovation for economic growth. The paper argues that this transition is due not only to the structural changes in global production, but the theoretical evolution and paradigmatic shift of the concept of “knowledge economy” in general and “knowledge” in particular has played a significant role. The paper examines the different interpretation of knowledge within new types of intangible economies (e.g., new/Internet, weightless, service, creative, cultural economies) where knowledge is perceived to be generated not as a product of scientific research but as a service or creative activity and critically examined the role of scientific research in a service led knowledge economy. Additionally, the paper argue how these phenomena, which marked the global economy in the last decades, enable the transition of the standard concept of knowledge economy originated from industrial production and manufacturing to a knowledge economy equalized with various types of expanding intangible economies, primarily those based on service and creative industries.

Vliv znalostní ekonomiky na ekonomický růst a ekonomickou úroveň zemí

The article deals with the analysis of the relationship between knowledge economy and economic growth and economic level of the countries. Concept of knowledge economy and its growth is defined in the first two chapters. Then two hypotheses about positive relationship between knowledge economy and economic level and knowledge economy and economic growth are verified at the group of the world economy countries. For verification of the both hypotheses is used regression analysis. The first hypothesis was confirmed. It holds for the group of world economy countries that the more investments in knowledge the country has, the more advanced is and vice versa. Also strong correlation between economic level of the country and each part of the knowledge economy index, i. e economic and institutional regime, education, innovation and information and communication technologies, was proved. On the contrary the second hypothesis was not confirmed. It does not hold that knowledge economy will lead to higher economic growth in future. Surprisingly it was found that relationship between these two variables is negative.

Fourth Pillar in the Transformation of Production Economy to Knowledge Economy

Knowledge has increasingly influence economic growth of nations of late leading to the concept of knowledge economy. It is here that knowledge has became one of the factors of production and the disparities in countries productivity and growth are now less reliant on their abundance of natural resources than the intellectual capacity and quality of human capital. Recent debate on transforming production based economy to knowledge based economy has give raise to the interactions between three major players i.e. the government; the university; and the industry. Earlier studies assumed that their presence would encourage greater knowledge intensive economic activities. However, recent observations indicated that this model is incomplete since the interaction between these three entities without the presents of a bridging agent may result in a weaker bond; and the connection among these organisations are rarely equals. These gaps and inequalities could be, we believe, overcome through the insertion of a fourth pillar in the mould of society represented by the non-governmental organizations. The fourth pillar provides sufficient influence and voice of the people since they provide avenues for communications between authorities and the people whom are influence by their decisions.
