| dbo:abstract | A knowledge regime is a type of system involving a specific set of actors, organizations, and institutions that create policy ideas used to alter the organization and overall operation of the policy-making and production process. Knowledge regimes are beneficial for the implementation of public policy because they introduce new sets of data, research, theories, recommendations, and many other influential ideas directed towards an end goal of economic competition. These regimes became increasingly important following WWII when many capitalist societies were facing long periods of high inflation and economic stagnation associated with high levels of unemployment. Following this era, knowledge regimes were used in the study of comparative political economies, which examined both policymaking regimes as well as production regimes. The information and policies that arises from knowledge regimes differs depending on the political economy that a state operates in. In a liberal market economy (LME) with a decentralized, open market, the knowledge regimes tend to be more market-oriented, meaning there are less external constraints from the government. In open markets there is more competition between companies and actors, resulting in a more adversarial environment. In an LME with a more centralized and closed market, there is nonpartisan state-involvement, all the while in a hostile environment. In coordinated market economies (CME) with decentralized, open states, there are strong associational institutional arrangements, which results in more consensus-oriented knowledge regimes whereas in a CME with a centralized closed market, policy changes come from within the state. Depending on the political economy of a state, there are four corresponding knowledge-producing organizations. The first organization is composed of scholars who have specific knowledge on a topic; these members tend to be university students and/or professors. Another organization is made up of advocacy research units with individuals who have dedicated their time to one given topic. A third organization includes the individuals closely associated with a political party who conduct research that will provide expert advice and analysis for party members. The last knowledge-producing organization includes state research units who are situated within the government and are readily available for members within the government at any given time. (en) |
