説明

This paper aims to examine the trans-nationality and applicability of Nonaka’s theory and his SECI model in particular to the Knowledge Management (KM) context in the West, by looking closely at a body of existing literature that has knowledge per se as a central concern in the West. The examination has done by using the typologies of knowledge in the organization developed by researchers in the West. This has also been examined in terms of the integrated framework presented in the previous issue by the author and related to the types of knowledge treated in Nonaka’s SECI model. 　The analysis clearly revealed that Nonaka’s SECI model offers a comprehensive framework for analyzing and integrating the different types of knowledge in the KM context, even in the West. Moreover, in spite of the dynamic nature of organizational knowledge activities, the existing literature related to KM in the West, tended to be quite static in their explanations. The examination suggests that Nonaka’s SECI model would compensate for the weakness of these arguments by presenting the perspective of a dynamic process of knowledge creation in an organization, combining different types of knowledge in sequential activities.
