Knowledge management in a polarised environment
by Nikos A. Antivachis, Vasilis A. Angelis
International Journal of Applied Systemic Studies (IJASS), Vol. 3, No. 4, 2010

Abstract: The nature of the environment – static or dynamic – corresponds to a given type of knowledge, its creation, storage, processing and use. This paper addresses the way knowledge evolves and its corresponding management on the basis of a polarised environment of operation. Thus the paper examines: a) what knowledge is and its relationship with data, information, wisdom and truth; b) knowledge's relationship with a stable and dynamic environment correspondingly; c) knowledge management as a representation of highly structured and unstructured situations and their corresponding attributes; d) the resulting technology as well as the human-centric practices and their consequent repercussions.
