Microdynamics of Technological Change

US$ 220.00 (+ tax)
The emergence in recent years of a knowledge-based economy, and the seismic, structural changes it has wrought in the advanced economies, have been the subject of intense debate in economics. This volume presents a comprehensive assessment of the economic effects of the emerging information and communication technologies associated with a knowledge-based economy, and looks at how knowledge is increasingly treated as a product in its own right.
An original framework is developed to comprehend these fundamental shifts, based on three bodies of knowledge:
* the economics of path dependence and of historical time as they are elaborated in the economics of new technologies
* economic topology based on the methodology of network analysis
* the new economics of knowledge and the concept of localised technological change
Microdynamics of Technological Knowledge provides a unified analytical framework for the study of the transition of advanced economic systems towards a knowledge-based economy. As such it will be welcomed by both students of and researchers into the new information age.
