In globalizing competitive markets knowledge exchange
between business organizations requires incentive
mechanisms to ensure tactical purposes while strategic
purposes are subject to joint organization and other
forms of contractual obligations. Where property of
knowledge (e.g. patents and copyrights) and contractbased
knowledge exchange do not obtain network
effectiveness because of prohibitive transaction costs in
reducing uncertainty, we suggest a robust model for peer
produced knowledge within a distributed setting. The
peer produced knowledge exchange model relies upon a
double loop knowledge conversion with symmetric
incentives in a network since the production of actor
specific knowledge makes any knowledge appropriation
by use of property rights by the actors irrelevant. Without
property rights in knowledge the actor network generates
opportunity for incentive symmetry over a period of time.
The model merges specific knowledge with knowledge
from other actors into a decision support system specific
for each actor in the network in recognition of actor role
differences. The article suggests a set of 9 static and 5
dynamic propositions for the model to maintain
symmetric incentives between different actor networks.
The model is proposed for business networks. |
