Abstract
This article offers a historicized account of knowledge-intensive organizations. This is achieved by drawing on an archive and interview study of Bletchley Park, the British Second World War codebreaking centre.The outlines of the organization of Bletchley Park are presented. The case is then used to challenge the idea that knowledge-intensive organizations are a novel phenomenon. Second, it is used to explore the contingent nature of ascriptions of knowledge-intensivity to particular organizations and occupations
