“…Kostakis et al, 2015;Müller, 2012;Salcedo and Fuster-Morell, 2014). Research found that these often large, less close-knit, and globally distributed communities could be organised through a mixture of architectural (Massa and O'Mahony, 2021) and normative control (Pentzold, 2020). On the one hand, communities implemented a tiered participation infrastructure setting apart core and peripheral members, a gradual increase in standardised processes, rules and roles, accompanied by decentralised decisions and a nested project structure (Rozas and Huckle, 2021).…”

“…It is held together by ties of vulnerability and a sense of belonging that facilitates knowledge sharing, intrinsic motivation, and collective action (Adler and Heckscher, 2006)). On a functional architectonic level, this calls for a partitioning between core and periphery, empowering the few, while offering participation opportunities for the many (Dahlander and O'Mahony, 2011) as well as a model of 'scaling across' a network of nested and interrelating communities (Pentzold, 2020) to provide a scaffolding for relationships to grow, as the case of Drupal illustrated (Rozas and Huckle, 2021). The aesthetic dimension calls for a reconceptualisation of vulnerability as a generative force of organising and open-ended boundary work (Velicu and García-López, 2018: 55).…”

New ways of working in distributed platforms and collaborative communities rely on the ongoing cultivation of a special spirit to facilitate collective action, serendipitous encounters, and knowledge creation. However, depletion of spirit is frequently observed. It results from challenges involved with increasing scale, participatory governance, commodification and care. Compiling six years of ethnographic fieldwork, we examine the role of events to maintain spirit in an open source software community, a network of impact entrepreneurs and a cooperative crowdsourcing platform. Conceptually, we frame spirit as a collection of atmospheres and inquire into its organisation as a process of affective communing. Our study finds three atmospheric qualities - togetherness, mutuality and dissonance - and illustrates how they rhythmically emerge within certain thresholds of collective feeling. Thereby, we expand the notion of ‘architectural control’ in distributed and decentralised organising. Next to its functional dimension as a sociotechnical framework, setting up a tiered participation and nested project structure, it encompasses an aesthetic dimension that holds participants and their bodies in resonance. To sustain spirit as a communal resource, participation architectures need to be equally sensible to processes of mindful communication and embodied imitation, enabling the insertion of difference, novelty and playfulness through periodic dissent and distancing.

“…Additionally, [8] implies that resources are tourism's tangible and intangible investments, while capabilities are a technique for implementing specific tasks regarding the resources at hand. On the contrary side, knowledge and expertise are the integration of organizational resources into concentric circles that include individuals and organizations to support special abilities [9].…”

et al. 2023

Most recently, there has been a growing interest in understanding the correlation concerning knowledge management and competitiveness more so in the area of tourism. Hence, this paper looks to provide a synthesis on theoretical nexus of knowledge management and tourism business enterprise competitiveness by giving an integrated overview of four micro economic related theories that influence competitiveness and knowledge management. These theories were examined to exhibit the extent of their applicability to tourism businesses as a way to alleviate challenges posed by susceptibility, complexity, ambiguity, uncertainty, and volatility brought about by market liberalization and globalization. Moreover, theories are, considered a set of systematic hunches, which have multiple parts, which play a role in the overall idea of what exactly a theory is proposing. During the review of literature various theories assert to explain knowledge management and competitiveness individually, but on some occasions in relation either to organizational learning or organizational (quality) culture. Thus, the need to supply an integrated overview of the theoretical nexus between these concepts by exploring the theoretical frameworks and related facets. Of the micro-economic theories: the institutional theory, the knowledge-based theory, the resource-based theory, and the (dynamic) capabilities theory were used to guide and try to explain the relationship of aforementioned facets. The knowledge-based theory posits that an organization’s competitive gain stems from the distinctive knowledge assets along with its ability to effectively utilize and share these assets within the organization. The resource-based theory, conversely, emphasizes the role of physical and intangible resources in determining an organization’s competitiveness. The (dynamic) capabilities theory underscores the importance of an enterprise’s ability to continuously learn, adapt, as well as innovate to sustain a competitiveness. Finally, institutional theory highlights the role of external factors, such as business standards, industrial policies and procedures such as quality approaches, in shaping an organization’s competitiveness. Overall, with the comprehensive perception of the given theories the paper attempts to feature the correlation between knowledge management and competitiveness within the tourism industry. Highlighting ways in which these theories can be integrated to supply a more holistic understanding of this relationship especially in the study areas of tourism managerial micro-economics, tourism competitiveness and organizational knowledge management aimed at impending application in particular to enhance the sustainability tourism business enterprises.
