Historians however know that all societies are and have been knowledge societies. Without the ability to create, transfer, and use knowledge, between individuals and groups, power areas would neither have been built nor maintained. This edited volume reflects how historical actors, both those in power as well as laymen and officials, have produced and utilised information and knowledge from the Middle Ages until today. It acommodates research into census, urbanisation, history of kings and queens, exercise of public authority, social and political movements, disciplining and formation of opinion. In Kunskapens tider. Historiska perspektiv på kunskapssamhället (?The knowledge society. A historical perspective?) nine researchers from the Department of History at Stockholm University contribute with examples of the need for and use of knowledge, in different historical situations and periods. 517 $aKunskapens tider 606 $aHistory (General) 606 $aHistory of Central Europe 606 $aHistory of Asia 606 $aHistory$2bicssc 606 $aEuropean history$2bicssc 606 $aAsian history$2bicssc 606 $aHistory: earliest times to present day$2bicssc 606 $aSocial & cultural history$2bicssc 608 $bElectronic books. 615 0$aHistory (General) 615 0$aHistory of Central Europe 615 0$aHistory of Asia 615 7$aHistory 615 7$aEuropean history 615 7$aAsian history 615 7$aHistory: earliest times to present day 615 7$aSocial & cultural history 912 $a9910156512103321 996 $aKunskapens tider: Historiska perspektiv på kunskapssamhället$91915299 997 $aUNINA
