Summary: | The 21st century represents the century of knowledge, where the information and knowledge have an essential role for the world states’ economic-social development, as well as for modeling and affirmation of each individual. As the ’knowledge society’ concept is associated to the ‘technological innovation’ concept, the knowledge society includes the social, cultural, economic, political and institutional transformation in the perspective of pluralistic development. The knowledge society does not represent a formula, it is an epistemic phenomenon, with a clear methodology in light to identify common problems and search common solutions worldwide. Knowledge society involves the development of the states’ capacity to identify, create, process, disseminate and use information and knowledge in view of sustainable development, economic growth and improvement of competitiveness, in light to face successfully new challenges of this millennium. The paper aims to present an empirical comparative analysis of the key components of knowledge society in the 28 EU Member States. The research methods refer to documentary and bibliographical analysis, as well as comparative analysis. |
