Abstract

This study has the purpose of analyzing the implications between institutional transformation, the knowledge transformation processes, and change. This analysis departs from the assumption that creation and transmission of knowledge transformation processes is fundamental for transformation and change of institutions. The method employed is the meta-cognition analysis based on conceptual, theoretical, and empirical literature. The study concludes that knowledge creation and transmission through technological innovation is required for institutional transformation and change.

Institutional Transformation

The institutional transformation processes are conceptualized as regime shifts replacing the institutional socio-technical configurations with a new one structural institutionalized elements, technologies and networks (Fuenfschilling, 2019; Geels, 2002). The scope and scale of institutional transformation is sustained by the wider concept of system of institutions, the interdependence between institutions and their systems in which are embedded, their structures, functions and changes that are and share complementarities (Roland, 2008; Aoki, 2008; Hira and Hira, 2000, Peters, 2005, Pierson, 2004).
