But even a quick internet search shows that the term is not only limited to academic circles. Moreover, international bodies such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) underline the importance of transformative processes toward knowledge societies for global tertiary education and promote \"inclusive knowledge societies for sustainable development\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together Nico Stehr's key writings on the knowledge society and serves as an authoritative resource for students, scholars, and professionals. Previously published articles and chapters have been carefully selected to take the reader from the formulation and refinement of the concept to scholarly contributions that test its applicability and explanatory power in empirical case studies. In addition, the volume includes new and original material by Nico Stehr that will help the next generation of scholars explore novel and pressing issues such as the role of digital technologies and AI in modern knowledge societies and future inequalities in knowledge capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nico Stehr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800616120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800616127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Europe Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Nico Stehr","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47452773744895,"sku":"9781800616127","price":98.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5f1b2b17-3883-4344-b352-24d390bfdb2f.jpg?v=1761930394","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/world-made-of-knowledge-a-nico-stehr-9781800616127","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
