Summary
This chapter looks at the political economy effects of the knowledge economy. Because the knowledge economy gains from scaling, it pushes states to adopt measures that increase the size of markets as well as increasing the security of cross-border transactions. The chapter reviews the evolution of such measures and how they might further change to satisfy the stakeholders of the knowledge economy.
