Where did knowledge management come from?

As part of my background research for my idea for a Consumer-Centric Knowledge Web (CCKW), I read a 2001 paper by Lawrence Prusak entitled "Where did knowledge management come from?". It's written at a fairly high level, but that also makes it a good background paper for my own efforts. It makes references to economics, sociology, philosophy, and psychology.
