Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durante los años noventa, Estados Unidos conoció un resurgir del crecimiento económico. Aunque este fenómeno se explica en parte por razones de ciclo, existen otras de orden estructural e influencia a largo plazo, en particular el papel del capital asociado a las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (ICT, según sus siglas en inglés), y la producción de activos en este sector. El contraste entre la tasa de crecimiento de Estados Unidos y el avance mucho más modesto de la Unión Europea se ha atribuido, en ocasiones, al retraso del Viejo Continente en el uso y la producción de activos relacionados con las nuevas tecnologías. Esta obra analiza el crecimiento, la medición del capital y las nuevas tecnologías. Para ello, reúne las ponencias presentadas y debatidas, a finales de noviembre de 2002, en un seminario internacional organizado por la Fundación BBVA y el Instituto Valenciano de Estudios Económicos (Ivie) en Valencia. Todas las ponencias se han sometido a un proceso de revisión y actualización antes de ser incluidas en el volumen. Esta colección de trabajos pretende facilitar el conocimiento y la comprensión de los factores que subyacen al crecimiento económico y a la mejora de la productividad de los años noventa y, en particular, al papel desempeñado por las ICT.

This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1,5, Technical University of Ilmenau (Institut f r Wirtschaftswissenschaften), 43 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses the relevance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for economic growth in developing economies. By reviewing the contributions from the neoclassical and endogenous growth theory and empiric evidences for the link between ICT and economic growth, the paper clearly concludes that ICTs facilitate economic growth, principally by providing incentives for capital deepening and increasing productivity through rapid technological progress. However, the impact on growth is more extensive from the long-term ICT use and networking that though requires appropriate ICT investment and complementary efforts in order that spillovers and productivity improvements are triggered and exploited totally. This paper derives the key determinants and interacting factors that, in the corresponding correct synergic combination, promote ICT's impact on growth-generating processes. For a variety of reasons, the states of these factors in developing countries provide a less ICT favourable environment for taking advantage from ICTs. These economies exhibit a lower stock of human capacities and per capita capital to trigger the productivity benefits from the ICT use. Therefore, the level of effort is higher than in the developed world to receive return on ICT investment. However, when they achieve to attract capital and knowledge by encouraging ICT investment and technology transfer supported by international openness, maintained financial and institutional systems, deregulation of markets and higher competition, they have the chance to benefit from adopting best practices and technologies from the industrialized world with complementary efforts in the reorganisation of business organisations and processes and enhanced human ICT-s
Download or read book The Economic Impact of Digital Technologies written by Paolo Guerrieri and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Economic Impact of Digital Technologies offers a profoundly illuminating examination of ICT transformations in Europe and its critical role in greater social inequality. It presents scholars and policy makers with original and practical tools to benchmark and assess the ICT diffusion and inclusion process. The core message of book is that a coherent European strategy for embedding ICT technologies in society is long overdue. Social differences in ICT use persist and are in some cases widening, yet despite this fact there is a dearth of research on remedying digital inequalities. This is of particular importance given that relative levels of ICT use, investment and research can often explain variations in economic performance between industrialised countries. The purpose of this book is to fill the gap in the literature by presenting key evidence on the economic benefits (and costs) deriving from investment in an inclusive information society. The authors propose indicators and indexes of digital development and e-Inclusion (and its flip-side e-exclusion) to assess the relationship between inclusive ICT and wider economic and social performance in Europe. Presenting the methodology to monitor countries' performance and ICT use, together with original measures and policy suggestions, this book will be indispensable to policymakers, scholars and postgraduate students in a variety of areas including economic growth, innovation, industrial and organizational studies, information and technology, European studies, and public and social policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two decades, explosive innovation in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and rapid expansion of modern communications networks with fixed and mobile broadband access features are changing the way we access, store and transmit information bringing significant efficiency gains in all activities. In this paper we intend to identify the various channels through which ICT is influencing many activities that impact the economy. Empirical findings reviewed in this paper support the role of ICT as an important source of economic growth and productivity with asymmetric effects across industries and sectors. This analysis summarizes the different methodologies explored by various researchers to measure the impact of ICT on the economy by incorporating the spillover effects of ICT into the impact measurement. Impacts of the use of ICT capital and ICT infrastructure on structure of production and input demands are also discussed. This aspect is very important for understanding the consequences of ICT use on aggregate demand for labor, composition of labor skills and type of capital formation.
Download or read book ICT and Economic Growth written by Dirk Pilat and published by OECD Publications. This book was released on 2003 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, at the height of the new economy, information and communications technology (ICT) was hailed as a technology that would radically transform OECD economies and bring large economic benefits. The recent slowdown has laid to rest several of the myths surrounding ICT: the business cycle is not dead, stock market valuations must be backed by profits, and the ICT sector is not immune to downturns. But this should not distract from the structural changes and economic benefits that have already accompanied the spread of ICT and that continue to this date. This report examines the impacts of ICT on business performance and the policies that can help seize its benefits. It examines the impacts that ICT has already had on economic performance, analyses why some countries have invested more in ICT than others and why only some countries have thus far clearly seen its benefits. It argues that ICT remains an important technology for the years ahead, as ICT networks have now spread throughout the economy. What counts now is how the technology should be made to work. The book argues forcefully that ICT is no panacea but a technology that can help business transform and enhance performance. But this transformation will only occur in a competitive environment, and when investments in ICT are accompanied by organisational changes, investment in skills and good management. The book argues for a comprehensive policy strategy to seize the benefits of ICT.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information and communication technologies (ICTs) create potentials for considerable productivity gains and for higher economic growth. However, ICTs also pose varied challenges to firms in order to benefit from these potentials. Highlighting the importance of innovations, firm-sponsored training, and recruitment of high-skilled workers, this monograph analyses why and to what extent firms differ in their capabilities to make ICT work productively. The work also comprises a detailed discussion of economic theory concerning ICT use and complementary firm strategies. In addition it provides a comprehensive treatment of various methodological issues concerning the measurement of firm-level productivity in econometric analyses.

Download or read book Intangible Assets Productivity and Economic Growth written by Carter Bloch and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advances our knowledge on intangibles and their role in productivity growth, presenting a unique multi-level perspective. It encompasses micro, meso, and macro approaches that build upon firm-, industry-, and country-level data and introduces novel layers of analysis. A variety of empirical instruments are used in the book, such as a large-scale international survey, input-output analysis, register data, etc., thus displaying fresh, comparative evidence for Europe, the USA, China, Korea, and Japan. The book also examines the subject within the global value chain context, which is one of the most relevant phenomena of recent decades, and assesses cross-country trends, drawing on a unique industry-level database of intangible assets, based on production input data from all over the world. The book offers new insights on how to measure intangibles, how they contribute to productivity growth, and how policy can help foster intangibles investments and growth. It will therefore be of great interest to scholars, researchers, and advanced students in the fields of economic growth, innovation, technology, and business management.
