N1  - Defining a 'knowledge society' -- Visions of open data -- Mobilising open data -- Institutions in the data ecosystem : actors in the public knowledge domain and in private data companies -- Mobilising data : scientific disciplines, scientific practice and making research data open -- Mobilising data : environmental data, technical and governance issues -- Navigating legal and ethical frameworks -- Big data, open data and the commercial sector; Open Access
N2  - While there is a lot of talk about how we now live in a knowledge society, the reality has been less impressive: We have yet to truly transition to a knowledge society - in part, this book argues, because discussion mostly focuses on a knowledge economy and information society rather than on ways to mobilise to create an actual knowledge society. That all may change, however, with the rise of open data and big data. This book considers the role of the open data movement in fostering transformation, showing that at the heart of any successful mobilisation will be an emerging open data ecosystem and new ways for societal actors to effectively produce and use data
