Armano Srbljinovi, M.Sc., Institute for Research and Development of Defence Systems, Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Croatia, armano.srbljinovic@morh.hr Prof. Vjekoslav Afri, Ph.D., Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb, vafric@ffzg.hr Jasmina Bo~i, M.A., Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb, jbozic@ffzg.hr Abstract The article considers the prospects of knowledge society from the viewpoint of Douglass C. North's five propositions about institutional change, which assert, in a nutshell, that the institutional change is brought about through the interplay of institutionally imposed constraints on interactions among social actors, in one direction, and the social actors' perceptions of opportunities that incrementally alter institutional constraints and rules, in the other direction. The analytical findings are further supported with insights in European knowledge society development provided by the recent Report of the European Commission's Expert Group on Science and Governance. The main conclusion is that the development of multiple, diverse, and decentralized civic 'knowledge-abilities' is necessary if the promise of knowledge society as a really empowering social arrangement is to be fulfilled. Key words: institutional change, institutional development, knowledge society, social institutions Introduction: North's theory of institutional change and knowledge society Douglass C. North has set up five propositions about institutional change (North, 1998), asserting, in a nutshell, that the institutional change is brought about through the interplay of institutionally imposed constraints on interactions among social actors, in one direction, and the social actors' perceptions of opportunities that incrementally alter institutional constraints and rules, in the other direction. According to North's view, institutions consist of formal rules and informal constraints, which structure social interactions. The institutional framework determines the set of economic opportunities and the incentive structure of a society. Social actors individuals and organizations perceive the opportunities and incentives, and acquire those skills and knowledge, which, according to their perception, will result with the maximum payoff. The skills and knowledge acquired by individuals and their organizations further shape perceptions of opportunities and incentives, and incrementally alter the very institutional framework, which had earlier facilitated their acquisition. North's approach to institutional change becomes particularly interesting when viewed from the perspective of a recent debate over knowledge society. The term "knowledge society" has become a popular reference point for policymakers throughout the European and many national governments. The term has been used in both descriptive and prescriptive ways (Loveridge et al., 2004). As a descriptive term, it is meant to point to new dynamics of economic growth and innovation experienced in recent decades (e.g. Nyhan, 2002, Figure 1, p. 21). As a prescriptive term, it is often used to envision potential directions of development (e.g. European Council, 2000; Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, 2004). In what follows we analyze some of the implications of North's theory of institutional change upon the prospects of knowledge society. What kind of knowledge societies? It follows from North's considerations that each society is, in one way or another, a knowledge society. Namely, the institutional framework of each society will dictate the acquisition of certain skills and knowledge, which will be, depending on the cultural heritage and other circumstances, perceived by the members of that society as the most profitable. The crucial question is, however, what kind of knowledge societies a certain society will really become. As North observes, the perceptions of payoffs on the part of social actors determine the direction of their investment in skills and knowledge. If highest payoffs, for example, are perceived to come from piracy, social actors will invest in skills and knowledge that will make them better pirates. If highest returns are expected to come from productive activities, one may expect individuals and organizations to invest in skills and knowledge that will increase productivity. If highest payoffs are expected in service sector, then social actors will invest in skills and knowledge related to the development of this sector. And if highest returns are expected to come from the development of deeply human capacities such as curiosity, creativity, and the capacity to create a world of meanings and values, then one may expect individuals and organizations to invest in skills and knowledge that will facilitate the development of such capacities. Obviously, in each of these cases, a different "knowledge society" will emerge, and in the case of piracy-based economy, the notion of knowledge society is in fact quite beside the point. Sadly, North also observes that "[t]hroughout most of history to date the players have more often than not perceived the game as one where the highest rewards accrued to military conquest, exploitation (such as enslavement), formation of monopolies, and so forth; in consequence, the kinds of skills and knowledge invested in have been aimed at furthering such policies" (North, 1998, p. 19). North also observes that the actors' perceptions of payoffs are formed in such a way that they reflect both the underlying incentive structure, and the mental constructs that society members form in order to explain and interpret the world around them. Therefore, the societal incentive structure and the actors' mental constructs are key in determining the kind of knowledge societies that will eventually emerge, and by targeting the incentive structure and the mental constructs, the development of knowledge societies may be influenced. Changing the incentive structure and the mental constructs, however, is a challenging task, and now we move to considering some of the related problems. Credible commitment problem Institutional change in modern societies is mostly accomplished through political processes. The exchange of promises for votes, which is one of the main characteristics of political processes, involves a particular kind of social contract between the constituency and their representatives. The representatives should be held accountable for fulfilling the promises they make when attempting to win the votes of the constituency. As North observes, however, the mechanisms for monitoring and enforcement of contractual obligations, i.e. for ensuring representatives' credibility of commitment, are largely inefficient. Politicians' promises are often spelled in terms, which are neither directly measurable, nor easily translatable into indicators of success. Even if the measures and indicators exist, they are often inaccessible to general public. Moreover, the crucial issues that influence the long-run performance of economies and polities are complex, subject to contradictory theories that cannot be resolved with the information available, even if the constituents did have the incentives to invest in information (ibid., p. 23). As North concludes, political markets are inherently inefficient. Let us consider the implications of the above discussion upon the knowledge society development. As we have already observed, the very notion of "knowledge society" is rather ambiguous, which makes it susceptible to various interpretations. And if the meaning of the term is not entirely clear to academics, it is probably even less so to politicians, who make commitments to developing such society, and still less to voters, who are supposed to hold politicians accountable for fulfilling their promises. Although significant efforts have been spent in developing systems of indicators and statistics to measure and monitor knowledge society developments (Loveridge et al., 2004), the general public is rarely informed on the results of such studies. Even when the information is disseminated more widely, it often calls for substantial effort on the part of a layman to relate scientifically presented data to his or her immediate day-to-day concerns. Therefore, it is not surprising that, despite a broad political consensus on the Lisbon objectives, the presence of a "widespread sense of unease sometimes expressed as 'mistrust of' or 'alienation from' science" has been recently detected in publics of many European countries (Felt and Wynne, 2007). Needless to say, the alienated and largely indifferent public cannot be expected to monitor the credibility of politicians' commitment to anything, let alone the complex issues such as those related to the knowledge society development. Asymmetries of power Asymmetrical distribution of power in a society is another factor influencing the processes of institutional development and change. "The institutional matrix reflects the bargaining strength of those able to make or change the rules" (North, 1998, p. 19). Asymmetries of resource ownership may be used as a measure of actors' bargaining power in a social interaction and the resource deficit increases the willingness of actors to accept bargaining demands of other actors (Knight, 1992). The greater the resources of an actor, the greater the actor's bargaining strength, the greater the actor's influence on the direction of institutional change, and the greater the likeliness that such actor will enjoy distributional benefits from the resulting institutions. Let us consider the implications of the asymmetries of power in a society upon the knowledge society development. As the institutional framework dictates the acquisition of skills and knowledge, and as it has been shaped under predominant influence of powerful actors, it is to be expected that the resulting incentive structure will encourage the acquisition of those skills and knowledge, which tend to bring highest returns to the powerful actors. In other words, more powerful actors are in a position to exert stronger impact on the emergence of a particular kind of knowledge societies than the less powerful actors. Beside the national governments, probably the most influential social actors of the present time are powerful economic actors, such as multinational companies. It is, therefore, to be expected that the acquisition of skills and knowledge possessing highest commercial value will be particularly encouraged in modern societies. Such trends have indeed been observed. The recent position paper of the League of European Universities, for example, expresses dissatisfaction with the excessive commercialization of high education: "Universities are not just supermarkets for a variety of public and private goods that are currently in demand, and whose value is defined by their perceived aggregate financial value. We assert that they have a deeper, fundamental role that permits them to adapt and respond to the changing values and needs of successive generations, and from which the outputs cherished by governments are but secondary derivatives. To define the university enterprise by these specific outputs, and to fund it only through metrics that measure them, is to misunderstand the nature of the enterprise and its potential to deliver social benefit" (Boulton and Lucas, 2008, p. 17). Shaping actors' mental constructs: the role of narratives We have already mentioned that mental constructs, which society members form in order to explain and interpret the world around them, are among the key determinants of the kind of knowledge societies that will eventually emerge. Shared narratives play a prominent role in shaping individual mental constructs. "All societies make use of characteristic, shared narratives that express wider imaginations about the world, how it functions, what is to be valued in it, and the place and agency of themselves and others in that world" (Felt and Wynne, 2007, p. 73). These narratives both reflect prevailing institutional structures and reinforce collective aspirations, thereby enabling institutional development. In other words, narratives facilitate the emergence of particular kinds of knowledge societies, as well as they are further ingrained by the emergence and development of those very societies. Current European policy narratives have been, among others, the subject of the recent Report of the European Commission's Expert Group on Science and Governance to the Directorate L: Science, Economy and Society, within the Directorate-General for Research. In this section we examine some of the findings of the Report, which are illustrative of how our mental constructs have been tacitly shaped by prevailing shared narratives. The Report of the European Commission's Expert Group on Science and Governance identifies the current European policy master narrative as "the urgent societal narrative of 'no time to lose' and its associated notions of a global race to lead in technoscientific innovation" (ibid., p. 79). The narrative is summarized as follows: "Europe is characterised as a society endemically averse to risk, science and innovation, reluctant to change, and fast becoming unable to sustain its comfortable position in a competitive global knowledge environment. Europe will fall behind with regard to productivity, in capitalizing on new technological knowledge-developments like ICT, biosciences and nanosciences, because commercial knowledge-investors see more rewarding social environments in which commercial technoscience can thrive through consumer enthusiasm for whatever is forthcoming fastest from the global knowledge-factory" (ibid., p. 76). The Report finds such narrative deficient in many respects. In particular: "Science and technology in this imaginary are staged unambiguously as the solution to a range of social ills, including the problematic identity of Europe itself. To the extent that S&T are recognised to generate problems, these are cast solely in the form of mistaken technological choices. There is no question about whose definition of society's problems or needs S&T should address, nor any prior question about who participated in determining what is seen to be a 'worthwhile' (commercially profitable or socially needed?) objective or outcome. Accordingly, the immensely normatively-loaded term 'progress' is black-boxed and its democratic examination is curtailed. () What values are embedded in the very concept of progress, and for whom those values have meaning, are thus rarely addressed. () That 'progress', 'science' or 'innovation' might be subject to shifts in the imaginations which drive them is or indeed that there might be competing visions of progress in a given society is left out of this master narrative. Responsibility for economic and social failure is instead implicitly delegated to citizens who do not feel obliged to act according to this particular ideology of progress" (ibid., pp. 76-77). "On the one hand the public is seen as an important resource for the support of science and technology, and closer 'public engagement' is therefore seen as essential. () On the other hand, when science is depicted as the solution to the most fundamental social problems, the public is cast as the obstacle to progress rather than as a partner in policy legitimation" (ibid., p.78). The Report concludes that the current European policy master narrative "detaches the search for progress from any live sense of a larger historical trajectory which gives us perspective. This also inhibits our institutional capacity or willingness to experiment with possible alternatives. We therefore risk subordinating ourselves as citizens to the imagined force of that grand narrative. This disempowering effect seems to grow relentlessly, and so does public awareness of it" (ibid., p. 79). Changing narratives, mental constructs and incentive structures Changing the prevailing shared narratives would obviously have far-reaching consequences, as this transformation would have profound effects on both the actors' mental constructs and the society's incentive structure. How can this overarching change be accomplished? The Report of the European Commission's Expert Group on Science and Governance underlines that the first step is "to develop a collective capacity to reflect upon the salient narratives and their roles in shaping society. Such reflective capacity is a key condition for making a robust European knowledge society" (ibid., p. 75). "The way to achieve this is the adoption () of new institutions and procedures for more inclusive and pluralistic discussion, learning, and challenge" (ibid., p. 82). With respect to mitigating the effects of asymmetries of power in a society, the Report stresses the need to "encourage policies which recognise and nurture the wider distribution of societal knowledge. Alongside the equity-benefits that such a stance entails, it also reduces the vulnerability of society overall by increasing capacity to respond effectively and coherently to unpredicted events and findings" (ibid., p. 82). In this context, the Report specifically recommends "a full review of the implications of existing intellectual property laws, regulations, guidance, and interpretive practices in relation to these, for the distribution or concentration of knowledge and knowledge-ability (). Other general factors influencing such social distribution aspects should also be identified and their influences assessed, and if necessary amended with the aim of promoting diversity, independence and collective experimentation. Open innovation systems and knowledge-commons should also be explored and supported" (ibid., p. 86). Addressing the credible commitment problem requires the transformation of currently largely indifferent publics into genuinely concerned and creatively engaged co-creators of knowledge society. Therefore, measures for alleviating the earlier mentioned public 'sense of unease' and 'alienation from science' must be taken. "Against the dominant narrative of a singular hierarchy of knowledge, with publics imagined as epistemically-incompetent, thus untrustworthy, European institutions have the evidence-base () to attribute a more active and creative role to their publics and, as a result, to further encourage such social capacity" (ibid., p. 78). "Recent experiences have shown that citizens who engage with technoscientific issues can develop a fine-grained understanding of the problems at stake, including their technical as well as normative aspects. Under appropriate conditions, citizens can thus be participants, critics and knowledge creators in an extended model of knowledge-production and collective reasoning" (ibid., pp. 77-78). In this respect, the Report also brings forth a number of concrete recommendations concerning, among others: the shift, for all EU scientific advisory bodies, from a "single prescriptive" to the "plural conditional" form of advice in which their recommendations are to be presented to decision makers, the wider involvement of regional and local public authorities in risk assessment and regulatory appraisals, the support to autonomous collective experimentation, the establishment of a European Community Research Council, composed mostly of diverse civil society network members and independent scientists, with the task to seek out and make connections between scientists and various social actors, the institutionalisation of ethical appraisal in EU regulatory processes, the establishment of an audit of all new European legislative, regulatory and investment initiatives for diversity implications. Conclusion The development of the genuine knowledge society, as indicated in this article, is a formidable task. The declarative commitment, as we have noticed, is often not enough, and the credible commitment of political leaders is hard to get. Even if the credible commitment is in place, changing the prevailing incentive structure and the actors mental constructs requires the change of a societys collective imagery, that is, the change of a societys master narratives. And, on top of all these obstacles, the genuine knowledge society, envisioned as the one grounded in human values that are deeper than striving towards immediate economic benefit, may seem to present a lofty, but ultimately unattainable ideal. Implicit in such criticism is the assumption that social actors under no conditions can perceive the development of deeper human values as most beneficial to them. This, however, is a hardly sustainable assumption, particularly when viewed in the light of human history, which, as we have already noted, is full of examples of zero-sum or less-than-zero-sum social arrangements. And if, for example, auto-destructive suicidal attacks, or mutually destructive military conflicts, both of which hardly bring benefits to anyone, are feasible social outcomes, then why would not much more socially beneficial arrangements involving development of human values also be feasible? The recent position paper of the League of European Universities provides a judicious answer to the "lofty ideal" line of criticism: "We are aware that statements about the deeper, personal values of education can easily be traduced as sentimental attachment to an ivory tower, detached from a world of employment and the insistent utilitarian demands from a variety of stakeholders. We retort that such values are themselves utilitarian. They form a bedrock that enables the practical skills needed by society to be most intelligently deployed (). The combination of deep, personal understanding and technical skill is a powerful alchemy that sustains a creative and innovative society" (Boulton and Lucas, 2008, p. 10).
