The general area of activities of the
Association "Cultures of
Knowledge" (Wissenskulturen e.V.) is the phenomena of
societal transformation and historical change of knowledge
cultures. The work is predicated on the premise, that any social change,
in whatever societal area, corresponds with a change of culture of
knowledge. Insofar all societies are "knowledge societies" in the
sense that any society has to emerge forms and techniques to proceed
important decisions regulating its knowledge: Which knowledge should
be kept, which can be deleted. And which form this could be done?
As knowledge culture we indicate the complexity of generation, storing, access and dissemination of knowledge. Insofar an observation of all these components of knowledge cultures should be helpful to get a deeper insight into the social quality of current societal transition in general.
The association Wissenskulturen e.V. was founded 2008. To read more about the activities of the association "Wissenskulturen e.V." please go to the Website of the Wissenskulturen e.V.
