Development of e-commerce in the conditions of establishment of the global information space

Abstract

Intensive development of new information and telecommunication technologies provides a fundamentally new quality of cross-border information exchange and becomes a driving force of economic and social change in the world. It already has a significant impact on relations between individuals and countries at the global level. At the same time, it is necessary to note the growing significant technological gap between developed countries (USA, Western Europe, Japan) and the rest of the world, which is the main obstacle to the formation of a global information society. Thus, thanks to the information revolution that unfolded against the background of globalization, we can say that the world is entering a new stage of its development (albeit not the information society, but at least its eve), this, as always, is very uneven and contradictory.
