Description:	This book has been a journey of insight and discovery in the emerging global knowledge “village.” Perspectives from and about different parts of the world and diverse human, socio-economic, technological and cultural contexts are presented and interwoven to produce an emerging new worldview on how specialized knowledge that is embedded in a particular socio-technical context can serve as the unit of reference for stocks and flows of a hybrid, public/private, tacit/codified, tangible/ virtual good that represents the building block of the knowledge economy, society and polity. GloCal (global/local) networks (see Carayannis et al., 2005), coupling together different national innovation systems and trans-nationally linking heterogeneous networks of knowledge producers, knowledge carriers and knowledge users, are thus becoming crucial components of the global, real and virtual knowledge architectures and infrastructures.
