Information and Communications Technology in Croatia: Hope Carrier for More Growth?
نویسندگان
چکیده
In times of growing integration of global economic structures it is inevitable that Croatia together with other European countries faces a number of necessary and difficult adjusting measures. Enterprises in inefficient and not competitive business sectors have to be substituted by new, promising ones. One business sector which is considered to be a great hope carrier for more growth among Western European countries is the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector. While in some European countries the role of ICT has grown considerable during the last years, others are just beginning to feel the changes. The impacts of ICT are manifold. On the one hand there is no doubt about the productivity enhancing effects of ICT in the long run. These positive impacts, however, come at the expense of short run adjustment costs. In this paper we constitute input into the discussion on the role ICT should play in Croatia to enhance their competitiveness among other European countries. Our central goal is to analyse comparative advantages and – disadvantages of Croatia in comparison to other European countries in the field of ICT in order to conclude economic policy measures to improve the economic situation in Croatia.
