| Abstract [eng] |
Knowledge economy is becoming the most important factor conditioning the economy evolution of developing countries, and the industries susceptible to information as well as the evolution of information technologies are an essential condition in country’s advancement, prosperity and wellbeing. In order to implement these priorities purposeful governmental effort and political willpower are needed. The topic I have chosen for my MA paper is a topical one, because the future of European Union is associated with the creation of the knowledge based society and knowledge based economy. The object of the MA work is Lisbon’s strategy in knowledge economy. The main purpose of the work is to find out if Lisbon’s knowledge occupation encouragement, enterprise and education goals are suitable to the conditions of knowledge economy. To implement the goal of the MA work the following main tasks were proposed: 1. To reveal the peculiarities of strategic management in knowledge economy. 2. To discuss Lisbon’s strategy, its structure, the goals and the segments of occupation, enterprise and education in knowledge economy aspects. 3. To analyze the chosen Lisbon’s strategy segments on the level of purposes and goals and to make a conclusion if these purposes and goals correspond to knowledge economy’s strategic characteristics. Trying to achieve the goals and purposes of this work I had to follow these MA work’s methods: the quantitative scientific publications’ analysis, the comparative method, and the model of industrial and knowledge economy. Having analyzed the purposes of enterprise and education according to the model of industrial and knowledge economy in Lisbon’s strategy, we can make a conclusion that only a part of goals fully meet the knowledge economy’s strategic criteria. Since the majority of goals meet the industrial economy’s criteria, we can make a conclusion that we are still living in the industrial era where labor force, material resources and the financial capital remain to be the most important, whereas in the knowledge economy the most important are knowledge and intellectual capital, innovations, innovative products, ideas, and capability to realize them. |
