Abstract

This paper’s objective is presenting some challenges and reflections about governance, knowledge society, and sociotechnical systems. Based on the Action Network Theory, Theory of Constraints, and others techniques, questions are discussed in a systematic and innovative way. Points like the synergism and collaborative ecosystem research efforts, knowledgeable organizations, and organizations as living beings, the involvement of people and others’ IT resources regarding the questions, as well as others are discussed, while considering questions, challenges and future perspectives. In conclusion, points are made to offer governance the normative goals of sustainability, existing socio-technical systems, and to imply connecting and synchronizing changes among the knowledge society actors.
