ABSTRACT:

 

The advent of the modern Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has often been compared to the second industrial revolution at the end of the 18th century. It is true; there are various similarities. But nowadays, as in those days, we unfortunately tend to over-estimate the short-term impact of changes and forget to consider the long-term effects. The New Economy is not really reflected in the daily rise and fall of the NASDAQ. The New Economy and the transition to the Knowledge Society are a profound and fundamental change and every single aspect of life is getting invaded. This is opening new doors but also dangerous abysses.
