The latest economic crisis (2008-) and ICT users&spendings [Elektronski vir]
Rojko, Katarina ; Lesjak, Dušan
The paper presents the research findings of the most recent (2008-) economic crisis impacts on information and communication technology (ICT) spending. The presented research as well enables the ...identification of parallels and deviations and the comparison of the impacts on ICT users and world regions. We noted certain characteristics and changes during the latest crisis, which imply the transformation of ICT, as well as the impact of various factors on the information society, The research findings confirm that during the latest economic crisis, the negative economic impact varied depending on factors such as the sector, type and size of the user, as well as on the economic development of the region. During the latest crisis (2008-2011) we noted the greatest negative impacts on ICT spending in the manufacturing vertical market and among small and mid-sized companies, while a greater negative impact was seen among business users in terms of the type of end users. The least seen overall crisis imapact was on the other hand observed among healthcare and government institiutions and the largest businesses. Thus, we have demonstrated that the factor of increasing ICT integration in the companies% operations, which allows and requires new trends and adaptation of ICT users in the crisis period, is undoubtedly very important, in addition to economic and technological factors. The research therefore enabled critical evaluation of certain theories, which serve to explain the identified problem, while we were also able to develop an alternative view on the phenomena, in particular on the ICT impacts on the economy, society, etc. and vice versa.
