Dear Colleagues,
I would welcome your interest in contributing to a forthcoming Special Issue of the International Journal of Public Policy.
The text below offers part of the rationale. The link further down has information on a suggested 'subject coverage', 'notes for prospective authors' and 'important dates'.
"The knowledge economy may be viewed as an entity or group of entities whose aim and purpose is to generate and manage the creation of knowledge; in extremity, this process may be seen to develop in perpetuity and as an end in itself. However, a knowledge economy may also be viewed as an entity whose aim is to contribute to knowledge creation with quite specific economic and/or social outcomes. Seen in this way, the development of the knowledge economy is likely to result in clear and unambiguous benefits to those who participate with it.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to encourage research on the impact of the development of the knowledge economy (viewed as the second approach described above) within the relatively more prosperous northern economies on those within the relatively less prosperous south."
Here is the link I mentioned:

I will be very happy to answer questions but please try and not reply to the whole list as that frustrates people.
best wishes,
Parviz Dabir-Alai
