The latest period of expansion in the international economy has been characterised by the liberalisation of capital movements, the deregulation of major financial markets and the spread of neo-liberal beliefs in the merits of open and competitive trade, the disadvantages of big government and protectionist policies (Hirst, 1997). The rapid advancement of information and communication technology and the growth of knowledge-based economy have led to the gradual replacement of the conventional resource-based economies. ‘A techno-economic paradigm of information and communications technology and the knowledge-based economy has created a new knowledge-elite class that favours free markets in this post-industrial society, characterized by globalization, decentralization, deregulation and privatization’ (Low, 2003: 30–31).

Innovations are the main form of transformation of knowledge into welfare. They represent a key feature of a post-industrial economy and of the relevant knowledge-based economy in which the knowledge becomes a critical factor and a primary source of socio-economic development. The shaping of the educational services market is one of requirements for transition to a post-industrial society, which presupposes a comprehensive modernization of the country. The statement of modernization itself primarily applies to education, – both basic and further. In Russia, a new structure of higher education was created, in which the leading role belongs to federal and national universities designed to prepare professionals for the new economy and science. In the transition period, one of the main tasks of higher education is to train engineers of innovative type. However, the level of engineering education in universities as a whole does not meet the requirements of an innovative economy, and the most demanded professions do not belong to the sphere of innovations. Young people are still motivated to obtain a profession that allows to ensure high wages, primarily in the financial sector and management. This problem is solved by developing a real cooperation between universities and business, by the expansion of academic mobility, as well as the introduction of additional professional development programs and training of engineering personnel.

In modern conditions it is important to develop a systemic and institutional concept of culture as a form of knowledge economy. In order to present a systemic concept of knowledge and culture in the formation of knowledge economy, I think the new meaning of paradigmatic and conceptual aspects of economic science is of particular importance. In addition, the systematic representation of the cognition process is particularly important. As shown by the practice of recent years, the main problems in the form of knowledge technology are solved, which will facilitate the improvement of the “cognitive” function of economic science and enhance its practical benefits. The modern stage of globalization is characterized by a number of specific peculiarities of post-dosystem development, which, in our view, is important to the development of knowledge-based economy (knowledge economy). It is noteworthy that globalization stems from adding global dimensional dimensions to the knowledge economy, such as resource-technological, informative, communicative and institutional structures. In addition, we think it is necessary to understand the knowledge of the knowledge economy. This makes it possible to develop culture with knowledge as a factor of forming a knowledge economy. According to the Postindustural Theory, the main resource of the post-denser economy is information and knowledge, the main type of manufacturing activity is the high level of automation of the production, the science of technologies used primarily from the main technologies, and various services are the most common types of economic activity. In industrial society, the field of agriculture, industry - Industry, Postindustry - determinants are already theoretical knowledge with universities, as a place of active and generating knowledge.

In modern information and IT society, creativity is elevated to a pedestal as a condition for market success, but also survival. In other words, in post-industrial production, or the entire economy, and certainly media companies, which of course operate according to market principles and are based on information, creativity is the most wanted commodity. In the modern knowledge society, there has been a strong affirmation of the phenomenon of cultural, that is, creative industries that have great importance for the economic, social, political and general development of society. At the same time, changes in the economic, technological and cultural spheres have strongly influenced changes in the media, as an important creative industry. This means that media products (information, videos, pics) and the media are industry, not only because of the rating criteria which dictate the direction of business but also because it is about mass production and consumers. Creativity is an important strategic resource for increasing competitiveness in a knowledge-based economy. However, media policy does not encourage the systematic promotion of creativity. Consumerist entertainment industry suppresses and marginalizes authentic, creative cultural practices, replacing them with pseudo-cultural contests. The integration of theoretical knowledge and education into the Serbian media sphere is practically at the zero points with recurrences that seriously undermine the overall development, application of knowledge, modern technological achievements, and the affirmation of democracy and freedom as the basic precondition for the overall prosperity of society.

Finding a new destination for declining industrial communities is a common European trend, wherein local, national and EU interests are intertwined and sometimes contested. New meaning is sought, among other things, in economics, political activity, and images of the past. This article analyzes local development narratives in the case of the “northern periphery”. This paper highlights how the shrinking town of Kajaani, Finland, reacts to the state’s changing role in regional industrial strategies by comparing different local interpretations of future expectations. The research material comprises interviews, city strategies, and editorials from a local newspaper. This paper suggests that the previously dominant narrative of decentralization still holds sway in the minds of the local advocates. However, it is flavored by the narrative of the knowledge-based economy forming three interrelated local narratives: the narrative of the small town; the narrative of closure; and the narrative of traction. The analysis shows that a northern model city of former industrial policy is seeking to reform and develop its original strengths. However, strong links to previous doctrines of state regional policy still frame the potential of local interpretations and make them specifically Nordic development narratives.

Abstract So far, ‘Industrial Culture’ as a term has been widely used as a synonym for industrial heritage. Only recently, a re-interpretation of industrial culture has been discussed, which goes beyond heritage issues by including contemporary or upcoming cultural and creative resources, addressing directly the future development opportunities of regions. Whilst some aspects of this conceptual framework of industrial culture are already applied in some places, there is no comprehensive outline available yet. In the academic field so far no coherent concept can be found. The aim of this thematic issue is to foster a discussion on the state-of-the-art regarding the conceptualisation of industrial culture. This thematic issue has gathered contributions that respond to the following questions: the different understandings of the concept of industrial culture; the role of industrial culture in the context of a post-industrial society and a knowledge-based economy; the connection between industrial culture, regional development and regional identity, as well as the inter-linkages between traditional industrial sectors and creative industries. The contributions in this issue focus strongly on the connection between the industrial past, present and future, bringing together different academic view points on the topic. The issue maps out current research topics and poses new questions on dealing with the wide topic of industrial culture.

Настоящая статья посвящена исследованию генезиса и содержания социофилософского термина «общество знания» с опорой на ключевые программные документы ЮНЕСКО (доклады 2005 и 2009 гг.). Анализируется, в первую очередь, соотношение понятий «общество знания», «информационное общество» и «посткапитализм» («постиндустриальное общество») на основе работ классических (1960-1990 гг.) и современных исследователей данного вопроса. Кроме того, в статье проанализированы основные сферы «общества знания» (экономика, образование, культура и право), что позволяет путем синтеза доклада ЮНЕСКО и основных научных трудов в данной области выстроить целостную концепцию «общества знания». This article is devoted to the study of the genesis and content of the socio-philosophical term «knowledge society» based on the key UNESCO policy documents (Reports of 2005 and 2009). The author analyzes, first of all, the correlation of the concepts of «knowledge society», «information society» and «post-capitalism» (post-industrial society) on the basis of the works of classical (1960-1990s) and contemporary researchers of this issue. In addition, the article examines the main areas of the «knowledge society» (economy, education, culture and law), thus proposing on the basis of the UNESCO Report and the main scholarly works in this area comprehensive approach to building a platform of the «knowledge society».

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the tendencies of knowledge‐based economy in Lithuania by looking at a knowledge economy's major dimensions ‐ the structure of economic activity and the infrastructure of knowledge economy. The knowledge‐based economy is the dominant post‐industrial economic development paradigm. The emergence of this paradigm in the 1980s created preconditions to emphasize the role of knowledge creation and distribution as the primary driver in the process of economic development and growth, the distribution of income, development of knowledge‐based networks among firms and the interface between government, business and citizens in the advanced economies.
