This volume is the imaginative outcome of several international strategy scholars who have cultivated original research on the broad relationship between strategic capabilities and knowledge transfer at both intra - and inter-organizational levels. This innovative book explores, in depth, the role that strategic capabilities play in facilitating or preventing knowledge transfer in both firm and interfirm environments. As regards the relationships between strategic capabilities and the transfer of knowledge, the research encompasses different levels of analysis (e.g., the firm, the inter-organizational network, the industry), different theoretical lenses (e.g., the resource-based view, the knowledge-based view, the evolutionary perspective, transaction cost economics, the cognitive theory) and different methodological stances (conceptual, empirical, case based).

Industry Reviews

'Overall, the chapters in this impressive book advance a strongly dynamic perspective on the relationship of knowledge to competitive advantage. Peter Drucker's famous proposition that knowledge is now the dominant source of competitive advantage stands intact, but this book provides an important gloss on it. Durable advantage (if achievable at all) ultimately depends on strength at the meta-level of organizational knowledge, the knowledge required to manage knowledge effectively. The studies reported here are a valuable platform for future research on this key proposition.' -- From the preface by Sidney G. Winter
'This eclectic collection of papers offers specific and in-depth insights on the complex process of intra- and inter-organizational knowledge transfer. Surely a precious vademecum for strategic management scholars that would like to know more about knowledge transfer.' -- Andrea Prencipe, University G. d'Annunzio, Italy and SPRU, University of Sussex, UK
'A remarkably insightful collection of contributions, combining the strategy capability and the knowledge creation and sharing perspectives. Very useful reading for the serious scholar.' -- Yves L. Doz, INSEAD, France
