Teams are commonly celebrated as efficient and humane ways of
organizing work and learning. By means of a series of in-depth case
studies of teams in the United States and Finland over a time span of
more than 10 years, this book shows that teams are not a universal and
ahistorical form of collaboration. Teams are best understood in their
specific activity contexts and embedded in historical development of
work. Today, static teams are increasingly replaced by forms of fluid
knotworking around runaway objects that require and generate new forms
of expansive learning and distributed agency. This book develops a set
of conceptual tools for analysis and design of transformations in
collaborative work and learning.
