“…Social entrepreneurs can prompt the urgency of the identified problem, they can promote a specific idea (solution or policy) and they can activate the political will to embrace the suggested idea as appropriate to solve the identified problem. According to Gladwell's theory of a "tipping point" [18], and the conceptualization of Wood [19], which identifies the concept of the tipping point in relation to the policy images that help shape a policy window, "such images are not randomly determined, but are shaped by the combined quality of the message, the persuasiveness of the messenger, and the context of the policy environment" [19]. Wood further argues that policy is "the product of an innovative idea coupled with an opportunistic group of entrepreneurs occurring in a receptive policy environment" [19].…”

This article explores the global implementation of the FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific management and data stewardship, which provide that data should be findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. The implementation of these principles is designed to lead to the stewardship of data as FAIR digital objects and the establishment of the Internet of FAIR Data and Services (IFDS). If implementation reaches a tipping point, IFDS has the potential to revolutionize how data is managed by making machine and human readable data discoverable for reuse. Accordingly, this article examines the expansion of the implementation of FAIR Guiding Principles, especially how and in which geographies (locations) and areas (topic domains) implementation is taking place. A literature review of academic articles published between 2016 and 2019 on the use of FAIR Guiding Principles is presented. The investigation also includes an analysis of the domains in the IFDS Implementation Networks (INs). Its uptake has been mainly in the Western hemisphere. The investigation found that implementation of FAIR Guiding Principles has taken firm hold in the domain of bio and natural sciences. To achieve a tipping point for FAIR implementation, it is now time to ensure the inclusion of non-European ascendants and of other scientific domains. Apart from equal opportunity and genuine global partnership issues, a permanent European bias poses challenges with regard to the representativeness and validity of data and could limit the potential of IFDS to reach across continental boundaries. The article concludes that, despite efforts to be inclusive, acceptance of the FAIR Guiding Principles and IFDS in different scientific communities is limited and there is a need to act now to prevent dampening of the momentum in the development and implementation of the IFDS. It is further concluded that policy entrepreneurs and the GO FAIR INs may contribute to making the FAIR Guiding Principles more flexible in including different research epistemologies, especially through its GO CHANGE pillar.

“…The aim of the approach is to provide a more flexible approach to modeling that combines the advantages of tesseral and topological modeling. Voudouris, Fisher, and Wood (2006) showed an example of the use of object‐fields through the capture and indexing of objects sketched over fields to delineate conceptual regions of land use cover.…”
