Anthropology lies at the heart of the human sciences, tackling questions having to do with the foundations, ethics, and deployment of the knowledge crucial to human lives. The Ethics of Knowledge Creation focuses on how knowledge is relationally created, how local knowledge can be transmuted into ‘universal knowledge’, and how the transaction and consumption of knowledge also monitors its subsequent production. This volume examines the ethical implications of various kinds of relations that are created in the process of ‘transacting knowledge’ and investigates how these transactions are also situated according to broader contradictions or synergies between ethical, epistemological, and political concerns.

Purpose - This research proposes to investigate the relationship between ethics, knowledge creation and organizational performance. Design/Methodology/Approach - In order to run this study, as suggested by the experts, Nonaka & Takeuchi model was selected for knowledge creation process and Yokel model was used for organizational performance. In addition, Akhavan et al (2013) research was applied for organizational ethics dimensions. A conceptual model was designed based on literature review, and in order to analyze it, employees of a knowledge- based organization were asked to answer to the questions of a valid questionnaire. Structural equation modeling was used for studying the relationships between research variables. Findings - Research results imply that there is a positive and strong correlation between ethics and organizational performance. The relationship between ethics and knowledge creation processes is also positive and significant but no significant relationship is observed between knowledge creation processes and organizational performance. Research Limitations/Implications - The main limitation of this research is little researches and literature about ethical issues in knowledge management area. Originality/Value - Although numerous studies have been conducted with regard to organizational performance and knowledge creation but the literature is severely deficient considering observance of ethics in all dimensions of organizational performance and knowledge creation process, and in terms of analysis of their mutual interactions and relationships.

This book arises from research conducted through Singapore’s National Institute of Education on such topics as integrating knowledge building pedagogies into Singaporean classrooms, with both students and teachers across school levels, from primary schools to high schools. Additionally, international scholars contribute research on theories of knowledge creation, methodological foundations of research on knowledge creation, knowledge creation pedagogies in classrooms and knowledge creation work involving educators. The book is organized in two sections. Section A focuses on theoretical, technological and methodological issues, where sources of justification for claims are predominantly theories and extant literature, although empirical evidence is used extensively in one chapter. Section B reports knowledge creation practices in schools, with teachers, students or both; the key sources of justification for claims are predominantly empirical evidence and narratives of experience The editor asserts that schools should focus on developing students’ capacity and disposition in knowledge creation work; at the same time, leaders and teachers alike should continue to develop their professional knowledge as a community. In the knowledge building vernacular, the chapters are knowledge artifacts – artifacts that not only document the findings of the editors and authors, but that also mediate future advancement in this area of research work. The ultimate aim of the book is to inspire new ideas, and to illuminate the path for researchers of similar interest in knowledge creation in education.
