Journal Descriptions

Journal of the Knowledge Economy is a multidisciplinary publication focused on the dynamics of knowledge creation, diffusion, and application across the spectrum of organizations, industries, nations, and regions. The first journal to focus on the social, technological and economic aspects of knowledge and innovation. Combines theory and practice, with an emphasis on empirical studies and a comparative approach. Encourages collaboration among authors from different disciplines. Provides topical coverage across micro (firm-level), meso (industry-level), and macro (regional/national/international-level) perspectives. Includes coverage of such topics as entrepreneurship, technology management, education, and sustainable development. In the context of rapid globalization and technological capacity, the world’s economies today are driven increasingly by knowledge—the expertise, skills, experience, education, understanding, awareness, perception, and other qualities required to communicate, interpret, and analyze information. New wealth is created by the application of knowledge to improve productivity—and to create new products, services, systems, and process (i.e., to innovate). The Journal of the Knowledge Economy focuses on the dynamics of the knowledge-based economy, with an emphasis on the role of knowledge creation, diffusion, and application across three economic levels: (1) the systemic "meta" or "macro"-level, (2) the organizational "meso"-level, and (3) the individual "micro"-level. The journal incorporates insights from the fields of economics, management, law, sociology, anthropology, psychology, and political science to shed new light on the evolving role of knowledge, with a particular emphasis on how innovation can be leveraged to provide solutions to complex problems and issues, including global crises in environmental sustainability, education, and economic development. Articles emphasize empirical studies, underscoring a comparative approach, and, to a lesser extent, case studies and theoretical articles. The journal balances practice/application and theory/concepts.
