Interdependence between Globalisation, Knowledge-Based Economy and Information Society

JEL Classification: M21, O16, D80, D83

Abstract

The modern world is increasingly being defined by the term ‘globalisation’. Important changes in the global economy have become the main determinants of this phenomenon. Of course, we must not forget that globalisation should not be analysed without looking at social, political and cultural factors, given that all these are bound together. The aim of this article is to determine whether the interdependence between the processes of globalisation exist in the global economy or not. Second the paper tries to find the process of globalisation and how can this process be defined? Finally, the paper tries to know the interdependence between the globalisation of the knowledge-based economy and the information society.
