Sovereign Knowledge

The opposite of shared knowledge is reserved knowledge. Information is consciously kept back to guarantee a power advantage to a defined group. This no longer works very well nowadays. It is becoming more and more difficult to keep knowledge a secret since more and more people have access to more and more information. The Internet is a source of pluralized knowledge. We are at the point of a democratization of knowledge. This means, for example, that companies have to be more authentic with their – informed – customer in their communication.
