Title: The Embedded Generation of Knowledge: Contextual Spillovers and Localized Appropriability.
Abstract: The new understanding about the characteristics of knowledge indivisibility and knowledge appropriability
stresses the key role of external factors both in the generation and exploitation of technological knowledge. 
The combined effect of internal learning, external knowledge and the conditions for embodied appropriation associated 
to the intensive use of idiosyncratic factors by means of the introduction of biased technological change , provides key 
inputs to understanding the path dependent stratification of the directed features of the knowledge generated by
firms as the basis for building their distinctive competences and the economic success of regions.
