Abstract: On the basis of the recent concepts of epistemic communities and communities of practice, we show that the firm can be defined according to a form of double duality : cognitive and organisational. The interest of this approach is to put ahead the differentiated behavior from the manager and the entrepreneur inside the firm. It also puts in light the important questions concerning the organisational tensions under the vision of the knowledge-based economies.
