En savoir plus sur le livre
Recent academic and policy debates have focused on the knowledge-based economy and the economic impacts of international migration. This book challenges conventional views, emphasizing that all migrants can be knowledge carriers and learners, crucial to the globalization of knowledge transactions. It deconstructs the concept of knowledge, illustrating how tacit knowledge combines encultured and embodied forms. The book examines the profound consequences of international migration, first regarding the economic and immigration strategies of national and regional entities. Secondly, it explores how firms capture the "diversity dividend" through management strategies, while individuals benefit from boundaryless careers, continuous learning, and transnational working lives. This research offers a unique perspective on a dynamic force for change in the global economy, urging migration researchers and students to engage with management and learning literatures. It also prompts management and economic policy analysts to reconsider the role of international migration. Ultimately, this work contributes to teaching and research across various social science disciplines and informs policy discussions, promoting mutual learning and knowledge sharing among firms and migrants.
