| Summary/Abstract |
TODAY'S GLOBAL CRISIS, which manifests itself in increasing chaos, has given rise to problems that civilization has never had before. The habitual method of global use of armed force cannot solve any of them. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said in a speech at a session of the UN General Assembly in New York that exporting social experiments has tragic consequences and can have degrading effects on societies. He argued that a digital economy is essential as an instrument for tackling global tasks. A digital economy sets "a new paradigm for the development of the state, the economy, and society as a whole" and involves the use of information technology (IT) to make governance more efficient.1 There exist two fundamentally different principles for building a digital economy.
