| Tiivistelmä: | The paper explores the effects of introducing rewards within a virtual community of practice: the software vendor SAP online global community. It appears that rewards have had a damaging effect on the exchange of knowledge and generalised trust among members within the community. The introduction of rewards devalued the concept of knowledge as a public good, voluntarily shared out of moral obligation and community interest. Instead, knowledge came to be seen as a private good to be shared out of economic self-interest. |
