Noua economie – progres sau regres?

Abstract

The global economy is in a new stage of development, in which information and knowledge are becoming the most important factor in the economic process. New technologies generate the share of productivity growth, and this major technological change is known in the literature as the New Economy. Everyone's expectations for a better standard of living as a result of the implementation of information and knowledge-based mechanisms are very high. However, the current economy, both globally and locally, is facing a number of major problems, namely the Covid pandemic and the war in Ukraine. The objective of the research is to identify the main socio-economic changes that have occurred at the international level, but also nationally, in the current context of the New Economy. The research method is non-participatory observation. The data source is the information published by the authorized national and international bodies, as well as the specialized literature. The results of the research consist in identifying answers that would clarify the evolution of the world economy. Future research directions include monitoring and analyzing the evolution and impact of measures taken at global or regional level to remove the negative effects identified in the new economy, as well as reporting the positive aspects of the knowledge economy.
