Abstract:This important book addresses the organizational and economic implications of the new technologies of information and communication. Jannis Kallinikos analyses the recent spectacular growth of information and the self-propelling processes through which technological information is increasingly generated out of the reshuffling and recombination of available and interoperable information sources. He argues that information is no longer simply a resource but a pervading element of socio-economic life that is crucially involved in the redefinition of a variety of organizational practices and modes of economic action
Organizations, information, networks -- Technology design and social systems -- Information growth as a self-referential process -- Excursus on meaning, purpose, and information -- Networks revisited -- Addendum on networks and institutions -- The organizational order of modernity -- Epilogue on technology and institutions
