Članek obravnava vpliv rabe informacijsko-komunikacijskih tehnologij na migracijski proces. V tem smislu poudarja časovno-prostorsko neodvisno delovanje, ki ga te tehnologije omogočajo. Poleg tega, ...da tovrstno delovanje povzroča prehod od območne k omrežni organizaciji družbe, migrantom omogoča, da fizično oddaljene izvorne domovine emocionalno in družbeno nikoli ne zapustijo, kar se ne sklada z dosedanjim sociološkim portretom migranta. Na teh izhodiščih prispevek med drugim odpira vprašanje o ponovnem premisleku koncepta migranta, in sicer v pogojih omrežne družbe.
The article deals with the understanding of sociality in the context of ICT use during the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic in Slovenia. Based on the relationship between ICT and sociality, we argue that physical ...proximity is no longer necessary to establish and maintain social dynamics in the modern social context. We find that most Slovenians supported the government's measures to restrict gatherings and movements, and for the majority of the population these measures have had no negative impact on sociability. Further, the qualitative data obtained via observational netnography on Facebook show that various social dynamics took place in cyberspace. They are related to helping people overcome the hardships associated with restricting socialising in physical space, activities targeting specific social groups, and transferring pre-existing activities from physical space to cyberspace.
The ICT sector is one of the most important economic sectors in the world and the driving force behind the industry 4.0. On this basis, the paper highlights the significant ways in which industry 4.0 ...transforms requirements regarding essential competencies of contemporary European ICT sector`s workforce. Stemming from this the author argues that competencies of the workforce in the ICT sector are gradually shifting from strictly technical towards hybrid (i.e. combination of technical and soft). The latter is associated with the fact that industry 4.0 is not only based on technology and creativity of people applying technology, but in addition also on increasing intertwining of ICT sector with other socio-economic sectors, which results in changes of competencies of its workforce. In order to verify the thesis, the case study of Slovenian ICT companies(interviews with representatives) was implemented.
