You can follow a link in reverse direction by prefixing it with "^", e.g. "^foaf:knows". See http://code.google.com/p/ldpath/wiki/PathLanguage Note, however, that this kind of navigation is not completely supported over the Linked Data Cloud. While it might be against the ethos of RDF, Linked Data restricts these principles. In most cases it is not possible to know the incoming links from external datasets to a resource.
