Learning and Knowledge Management in the Firm : From Knowledge Accumulation to Strategic Capabilities

DutrTnit (economics, Metropolitan Autonomous U., Xochilmilco, Mexico) illustrates the complex transition process involved as companies accumulate knowledge and develop new types of knowledge management to build primary strategic capabilities. Based on a detailed case study of a multinational Mexican company, she examines all areas of the process, from how technological capability is initially achieved, through how the company approaches the international technologies frontier. She also provides theoretical and contextual background material, and looks at problems underlying the truncated transition process. The treatment originated as a Ph.D. dissertation in science and policy research for the University of Sussex. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
