CALLS FOR PAPERS

Special Issue of Knowledge Management Research & Practice:
Knowledge Management and e-Research Technologies: to Codify or to Collaborate?

Deadline for submission:30th August 2008

Guest Editors: Will Venters, London School of Economics and Political Sciences and Elaine Ferneley, Salford Business School

This special issue of KMRP, to appear in 2009, will focus on the role of technology within wider debates on knowledge management. Information and Communication technologies lend themselves to the capture, transfer and storage of data, and hence have, until recently, been strongly aligned with either objectivist view of knowledge management as codification of knowledge in databases, or a limited behaviourist view as communication and collaboration tools in support of social practices. The aim of this special issue is to explore in depth the relationship between social practice and Knowledge Management technologies (broadly defined) in particular questioning the traditional dichotomy between codification and collaboration through knowledge management technology.
