This book was released on 1962 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Production and Distribution of Knowledge in the United States marked the beginning of the study of our postindustrial information society. Austrian-born economist Fritz Machlup had focused his research on the patent system, but he came to realize that patents were simply one part of a much bigger "knowledge economy." He then expanded the scope of his work to evaluate everything from stationery and typewriters to advertising to presidential addresses--anything that involved the activity of telling anyone anything. The Production and Distribution of Knowledge in the United States then revealed the new and startling shape of the U.S. economy. Machlup's cool appraisal of the data showed that the knowledge industry accounted for nearly 29 percent of the U.S. gross national product, and that 43 percent of the civilian labor force consisted of knowledge transmitters or full-time knowledge receivers. Indeed, the proportion of the labor force involved in the knowledge economy increased from 11 to 32 percent between 1900 and 1959--a monumental shift. Beyond documenting this revolution, Machlup founded the wholly new field of information economics. The transformation to a knowledge economy has resonated throughout the rest of the century, especially with the rise of the Internet. As two recent observers noted, "Information goods--from movies and music to software code and stock quotes--have supplanted industrial goods as the key drivers of world markets." Continued study of this change and its effects is testament to Fritz Machlup's pioneering work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes in the coordinating activities of the Australian Universities Commission (AUC) between 1959 and 1970 are discussed, along with events leading to the creation of the Australian Research Grants Committee and the Academic Salaries Tribunal. In addition to reviewing relevant literature and official documents, interviews were conducted with university and government officials. Attention is directed to the role of the Commonwealth government in formulating education policy in the 1960s and the tensions faced by a large Commonwealth statutory authority in action. The AUC's role in responding to the following four tensions are addressed: providing advice to the Commonwealth on the universities' financial and developmental needs as part of its role as both an advisory and regulatory body, and administering programs of recurrent and capital grants that the AUC recommended; ensuring a proper balance of national needs and states' rights; reconciling changing views of university autonomy with changing government views regarding the accountability by universities for public funds provided to them; and safeguarding its own autonomy while serving successive ministers of education and cooperating with federal government departments responsible for coordinating the overall development of the Commonwealth's role in education.
