Abstract: Abstract Society and economies are not abstract concepts that exist in the ether of academic concepts and models but rather realities based on the human and social condition, experience and practice. At the core of a society and an economy lie the culture that shapes and frames the individual and collective experience and practice as well as the knowledge that informs the cognitive horizon, defines the perception and determines the reality in which individuals, social networks and society at large exist and operate. In short, knowledge and culture matter and especially the culture of knowledge and the knowledge of culture constitute states of socioeconomic, socio-technical and socio-political being enabling or impeding competences of related becoming.
