| Abstract: | Following Foucault's notion to discourse, it is argued that organisational knowledge is formed discursively, whereby knowledge management (KM) practices are constitutive of knowledge. To illustrate these ideas, a body of material has been drawn from six firms that have outsourced (parts of) their information technology (IT) in the hope of focusing their attention on their core business, gaining access to the supplier's fund of expert knowledge, and so on. |
