Insights on the Determinants of Scientific Knowledge Production.

Scholars of Strategic Management, Technology and Innovation Management, and Research Methods have recently sought to integrate theories that investigate the determinants of scientific knowledge production. In this Symposium, we propose to advance research on these determinants through the presentation of scholarly papers by four authors, each of whom will present recent findings developed with co-authors on this topic. The papers will be discussed formally by an emerging scholar in this domain. The purpose of the symposium is to support scholarly dialogue among participants, with the discussant, and in a question-and-answer session with attendees. We envision that this dialogue will advance frontier approaches to understanding how scientific knowledge production can be fostered institutionally, organizationally, and methodologically.
