How do governments use knowledge to inform§policy-making and policy-implementation? What are§the epistemological aspects and assumptions made§within the parameters of the classical scientific§paradigm that filter the use of knowledge? This§study argues that knowledge formed within this§paradigm, usually generated at a distance, has been§individuated, detached, segmented and abstracted. §When used to inform policy, such knowledge creates a§narrow ?standardising gaze? that ?disciplines?§communities to conform to dominant social behaviour§and beliefs. Case studies are used to demonstrate§that the two major models of development, as products§of this paradigm, employ this gaze rendering§replicability difficult if not impossible. These§models are the top-down and bottom-up approach that§are epitomised by the Silicon Valley model and§telecentre movement respectively. How this gaze§inhibits/facilitates development in policy§implementation in regional development is then§examined in the Goldfields Esperance region in§Western Australia. An holistic approach using§complex adaptive systems and action research is used§to understand the multidisciplinary aspects involved§in development.
