      ab: The writer offers a pragmatist, contextual treatment of disjointed knowledge. He focuses chiefly on the realms of articulate knowledge, criticizing certain ways of talking about such knowledge and suggesting a richer formulation that is more mindful of the tacit. He observes that knowledge is not only information but also a multidimensional mass of analysis and interpretation of information. He posits that efforts to “flatten” knowledge by reducing the matter to information, search cost, probabilities, and incentives subverts much of the basis for the call to degovernmentalize social affairs. Furthermore, he contends, flat-talk excludes the vocabulary of entrepreneurship, enterprise, discovery, insight, interpretation, and judgment from economic discourse.
