Abstract

At this stage some readers may have begun to reflect about the messages in this book. What are the messages? Are we selling you a new solution? Is this the new world view? Will representationism die? In short, are we advocating the new epistemology as the best one? None of these. This book is about knowledge of knowledge. All we have done is to signal to the reader that there is another organizational epistemology. You, the reader, are invited to reflect and to develop your own epistemology. You decide what is meaningful for you. If you view this book as one party’s languaging in an ongoing dialogue for knowledge development, and yourself as the other party, it becomes clear that you are free to respond to any of the signals. This book is just a brief report from an ongoing knowledge development effort on knowledge in organizations. Because everything said is said from a tradition, and everything you do refers back to what you did, the signals that you respond to will change your life — on different scales.
