The main types (subtypes) of the information activity and their results – the derived information products as the phenomena have been characterized. Information activity is represented as the controversial unity of peculiarly information and associate information components. Production, distributing, exchange, and consumer associate information activity, their individual attributes, and also the main types of derived information products as their result have been characterized. Representative, materializing, and processing subtypes are separated in the production associate information activity. The arrangement, functional-specific variation, and development of derived information products have been defined in the last subtype. The ideal and materialized derived information products have been distinguished as the special presentation forms of primary information products. The main types (subtypes) of ideal and materialized information products, in particular syntactic (text, digital, graphic, audial); semantic (signal, report, data, bulletin, announcement); continual-discrete (continual, discrete, continual-discrete) and their interrelations as well have been reviewed. Special features of distributing, exchange, and consumer associate information activity, their interaction with the production activity and with each other have been defined. Considering that and taking into account the place of information activity and its types in public production four forms of information economy (IE) have been defined. IE of the I form is the area of exclusively information activity; IE of the II form includes IE of the I form and the production of the information activity attributes in the other economic sectors; IE of the II form makes IE of the III form together with economic activity which attributes are the information products; in the IE of the IV form along with the IE of the II form all types of the economic activity are featured in which at least one of the information activity attribute is used.

The activity-knowledge noumenons of primary information and information-digital phenomena in the context of the theoretical dimension of information-digital economy in the conditions of modern co-revolution are theoretically considered. The cognitive origins and bases of the specified phenomena are examined. An information phenomenon or product is presented as a sign of a cognitive image of a cognizeable object. The general and special features of knowledge, knowledge-information, knowledge-concept and information products are determined. The main types of cognitive activity (integral-synthetic, cognitive, cognitive-informational, cognitive-conceptual, cognitive-informational, sensory-emotional, empirical-abstract, theoretical-abstract, applied) and their corresponding results (products) are characterized. A system of integral-synthetic as well as integral (sensory-emotional, empirical-abstract, theoretical-abstract, applied) and partial (visual, audible, tactile, olfactory, gustatory, etc.) primary information products as the results of the respective types of information activity is presented. The knowledge-information “chain” consisting of the corresponding knowledge and information products is presented. The basic principles of actual information activity are formulated, in particular: i) completeness of expression of real object in knowledge-information, knowledge-conceptual and information products; ii) the adequacy or conformity of the knowledge product to the real object, the knowledge-information product – the knowledge product, the conceptual and information products––the knowledge-information product; iii) rigid binding: a) to a certain layer of the object (object as a whole) corresponding to a single knowledge product; b) to the latter – the corresponding single conceptual product; c) to this product – the corresponding single information product. Quantitative evaluation of an information product on the basis of definition of degree of completeness of designation by this product (phenomenon) of the corresponding knowledge product (noumenon) is proposed.

Abstract The development of national innovative systems is intended to solve a number of issues: from decreasing socio-economic inequality in countries and regions to creating environments favourable to new high-tech production and diversification of industrial composition. Determination of the possibilities for expanding the set of innovative types of economic activity must be scientifically substantiated, since significant financial, material and human resources may be consumed in creating and supporting new economic sectors within the framework of state policy. This article contains an attempt to create a mechanism for revealing promising trends in the development of an innovative economic sphere, taking into account comparative advantages in the commodity composition of exports by determining technological proximity indicators. The article aims to substantiate the possibility of using the concept of technological proximity in developing national innovative systems. The study employs technological proximity indicators based on the revealed comparative advantages (RCA) of countries by commodity groups of export. A matrix of technological proximity in the industrial fields (at a six-unit level) for 28 countries of the European Union in 2007–18 was made. The results revealed comparative advantages by groups of high-tech products in EU countries in real time. The analysis of technological proximity in the industrial sector has shown the types of economic activity connected with the innovative sector, which was used to determine the countries’ degree of participation in the manufacture of high-tech products. The proposed mechanism can be used in the development and implementation of national and regional policy in the sphere of innovative systems, since it allows promising areas for creation and support of new high-tech productions to be determined.

Actual problems of postindustrial innovation-information economy in the context of European choice of Ukraine under conditions of global transformations are being considered. The innovation-information economy is characterized as a leading component, source, generator and core of self-development of the postindustrial economy, progressive evolution of the national economy and society. First of all, it concerns neos innovations of substantive type and knowledge-intensive information as a form of representation of scientific knowledge, the effective means of directed updating and transformation of the ecogenes and economic genome of national economic actors, engine of their creative activity. Modern innovation-information revolution determines the objective character of the laws of scientific intellectualization and innovative informatization of economic activity. A unique innovation-generating role of knowledge and knowledge-intensive information is determined, in particular, by their substrate qualities, including: almost absolute metamorphism, indifference to carrier material, increased mobility, an ability to be subject to appropriation without proper alienation, an effective integrator of production factors and a catalyst for innovation capital formation, a moderator of the cyclic co-evolution of the basic components of the innovation-information economy. In reproductive economic processes, knowledge and knowledge-intensive information are represented directly as special essential forces of economic participants and in the form of innovation-information products (in non-market sphere of reproduction) or innovation-information goods (in market sphere of reproduction). These products and goods are carriers of the basic qualitative characteristics of knowledge and knowledge-intensive information, which allows them to be the leading “players” of the global economy. The creative potential of development inherent in the innovation-information economy can be realized only under conditions of its nationally oriented openness to the leading global trends and processes, in particular: (i) comprehensive knowledge-intensive informatization and computerization; (ii) active creative development of the economy and society; (iii) actualization of economic creativity and freedom; (iv) competitive cooperation and civilized struggle; (v) expansion of mobile and highly professional human capital. The innovation-information economy should become a powerful vanguard of the national development.

The paper performs the results of analysis due to the problem of categorization and classification of digital economy in order to assess its contribution to economic growth. The evolution of approaches to understanding the concept of digital economy is noted – evolution from Internet economy to perception of digital technologies as a factor in any economic activity. We analyzed one of the models categorizing digital economy, based on assessing the need for the use of digital technologies (it includes three categories – the ICT sector, the digital economy itself, the digitalized economy), and also indicated the shortcomings of the concept, in particular, impossibility to reliably determine the critical need of using digital technologies for different types of economic activity, thus they fall into related categories according to the classification. In addition, the paper analyzes the possibility of classifying the digital economy as a knowledge economy for further more accurate definition and categorization of "digital economy" concept. Based on the results of the analysis, key features of digital economy were identified for the further development of updated concept of digital economy and possibility of optimal categorization during further research. These features include science intensity, which is, among other things, cause existing difficulties in categorizing economic sectors and attributing them to the digital sector due to the diffusion of knowledge (and specifically digital technologies as the final result of knowledge accumulation), as well as their extensive penetration into most economic processes. As a result, it is necessary to develop a toolkit that can quantify the value of science intensity (manufacturability) of a particular sector of the economy in order to most accurately categorize and assess the contribution of the digital economy to economic growth. The second key feature of the digital economy is the reduction of transaction costs of interaction between economic agents (based on the concept of horizontal, vertical and diagonal costs by J. Commons) as a result of using digital products.

Abstract An adequate water supply is essential for the continued and sustainable growth of the Balinese economy. In addition to mounting water demand, Bali’s water supply has been compromised by high levels of water pollution. Despite being paid great attention, Bali’s earlier efforts to control water pollution yet to prove effective, mainly owing to their reliance on traditional methods and regulations that focus on water pollution being linked to discrete sets of economic activity (e.g., processing industries, livestock farming, and hotels). However, all economic sectors are interconnected through supply chains; thus, water pollution is the combined result of all sectors’ environmental performance. Therefore, determining the structural relationships between water pollution and economic activity serves as an important basis for more effective forms of pollution control for the Balinese economy. In this study, accordingly, we employed an environmentally extended input–output model to establish the links between water pollution and the production processes of the entire economy. Using biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) as a proxy for water quality in our analysis, we estimated that 246,868 tons of BOD were produced from Bali’s economic activity in 2007. Further, we identified the chief BOD-emitting sectors and found that intermediate demand and household demand were the major causes of BOD discharge in the economy. Utilizing supply chain relationships, we also accounted for the indirect role of each sector in total BOD emissions. Moreover, we categorized the sectors into four groups based on their direct and indirect BOD emission characteristics and offered appropriate policy measures for each group. Managing demand (i.e., lowering household consumption and exports) and shifting input suppliers (i.e., from polluters to non-polluters) are effective measures to control pollution for Categories I and II, respectively; clean production and abatement is advised for Category III; and a hybrid approach (i.e., demand management and abatement technology) is recommended for Category IV.

The greenhouse, nursery, and sod (GNS) sector in the United States accounted for $10 billion in gross sales or 5% of gross farm receipts, in 1998. Despite its significant economic contributions, the sector receives little attention from policymakers. Part of the problem lies in the absence of empirical economic analysis that addresses the impact of the sector on the U.S. economy. The absence of such analysis places the sector at a disadvantage when agricultural policies are designed to address agricultural imbalances, such as farm income problems, and hinders the ability of the sector to lobby for policies favorable to GNS producers. This study provides estimates of the economic impacts of the GNS sector on the U.S. economy and quantifies the linkages between the GNS sector and other economic sectors. The results show that the sector contributed over $26 billion and $17 billion in output and value added economic activity, respectively, and over 438,000 jobs.
