Šio straipsnio tikslas – atskleisti informacijos ir komunikacijos elementų svarbą šiuolaikinėje marketingo vadyboje, informaciją suvokiant kaip esminį mainų atributą, kuris skatina sandoriais (angl. transaction) grindžiamus mainus keisti santykių (angl. relationship) mainais. Šis aprašomojo pobūdžio tyrimas yra atliktas pasitelkiant mokslinės santykių marketingo literatūros šaltinių apžvalgos ir hipotetinio pobūdžio interpretacijomis grindžiamus mokslinės kūrybos metodus. Straipsnyje siekiama pagrįsti hipotezę, jog santykių mainai tarp įmonės ir vartotojo pasireiškia kaip informacijos ir komunikacijos procesų nulemta veikla, kuria mažinamas pažinimo disonansas, užtikrinamas saugumo jausmas, emocinis pasitenkinimas informacijos turiniu ir kiekiu. Santykių mainai nagrinėjami informacijos ir komunikacijos aspektais, siekiant atskleisti jų svarbą marketingo vadyboje. Informacija interpretuojama kaip esminė šiuolaikinės marketingo vadybos kategorija, nuo kurios valdymo priklauso būsima mainų tarp įmonės ir vartotojo forma bei mainų trukmė. Kintančio sociumo kontekste marketingas gali būti apibrėžiamas kaip informacijos procesų nulemta veikla, kuri leidžia didinti žinojimą apie rinką ir joje veikiančius dalyvius, šias žinias naudojant vertybiniams vartotojų bruožams nustatyti ir jomis remiantis kurti vertę rinkoje.Reikšminiai žodžiai: informacijos valdymas, komunikacija, dialogas, santykiai, socialinis emocinis ryšys.Informational aspects of relationship exchange in marketingTomas Rytel SummaryThe article aims at rationalizing a hypothesis that exchange of relations between a company and a user occurs as an activity conditioned by informational and communicational processes, which reduces cognitive dissonance and guarantees the feeling of safety and emotional satisfaction in terms of the content and amount of information. Information is interpreted as a basic category of modern marketing management, which influences the future swap between a company and a user as well as the duration of exchanges. Needs of current users may be approached as natural demand of a person for information, materialization of which in terms of content and amount enables to reduce cognitive dissonance in market exchanges. By applying postmodernistic discourse in the context of marketing management, the basic factor generating market-based exclusiveness and competitiveness (or an element of the value-establishing chain) is the know-how, and the main resource is information; thus, from the economic point of view, success or failure of any kind of business depends not on its production efficiency, but on the ability to involve the creative potential and know-how. An increasing need for brands and symbols in marketing prompts to satisfy individual expectations of users in terms of the content and amount of information. Users in today’s market are being governed by a great number of rapidly changing symbols which are being created in terms of the content and amount of information.The performed research has confirmed that relationship exchange is being generated as an activity determined by information and communication, which may change even the very conception of marketing management. The scientific problem discussed in the paper effectuates the following conclusions:1. Relations are being interpreted as an activity determined by verbal and non-verbal communication, which stimulate information spread, en courage a user to trust a company, minimize the search of alternatives, and increase loyalty towards a company, its products / services or brand name.2. Relationship exchanges appeal to the maximally individual relationship between a user and a company, which may occur only in the presence of the feeling of reliability and obligation, which is being generated as permanent phenomena of information exchange. These facts act as the basis for interpreting information and communication as a significant category of exchanges, which under participation in the process of exchange is likely to reduce formal separation and to increase the interdependence in terms of fellow-feeling.3. Relations are being generated on the emotional basis which is established according to the social-economic features of exchange. The mentioned features of exchange occur when swapping not material objects, but those involving the informational features.4. Bilateral communication is being developed, which discloses exchange as the process of information and know-how exchange capable of turning the interrelation between a company and a user into a relationship.5. Information and know-how turn into commodity which is a value for a company and a user. Information and know-how in the modern market ensure an organic link between a company and a user and serve for the development of relations, for exchanges based on relationship, reducing formal divides, determining a communication.Key words: information management, communication, dialogue, relationship.

The social issue of the “digital divide” has courted much political and scholarly attention in the last decade. There is, however, less consensus over the origin of the term, even though it is generally associated with the advancement and diffusion of information technology. According to Jan Steyaert and Nick Gould (2004), the concept of the digital divide is believed to have gained media and academic currency in the mid-1990s. In 1998, the United Nations labelled the digital divide as a new type of poverty that was dividing the world (cf. Hubregtse, 2005). A UNDP (United Nations Development Programme) report in 1999 (cf. Norris, 2000) stated that “the network society is creating parallel communications systems” that increase the divisions between rich and poor nations (p.3). The term, in effect, captures the social inequality of access to technology, particularly the Internet, as well as the long-term consequences of this inequality for nations and societies. The significance of the term is embedded within the notion of an information society, where information is an important component of the global economy in terms of production, development, and social enrichment of societies and nations. The diffusion of technologies, such as the Internet, has meant the surfacing of various social issues including technology’s impact on society, its relationship with older media forms, and its immediate impact on people’s social and political lives (Robinson, 2003, p. i). New technologies, such as the Internet, are seen as transforming the globe into an information society with the ability to promote new forms of social identity and social networks while decentralizing power (Castells, 1996, p. 2001). Robin and Webster (1999, p. 91), nevertheless, are of the view that the contextualization of the digital divide debates within the issue of information revolution is misleading, for it “politicises the process of technological development by framing it as a matter of shift in the availability of and access of information.” The term digital divide conveys the broader context of international social and economic relations and in particular, the centre-periphery power configuration marked by American dominance over the rest of the world (Chen & Wellman, 2004, p. 41). In fact, rhetoric and literature on technology and information have always emphasized this divide (see Galtung & Ruge, 1965), not to mention the debates that were sparked in the 1980s by UNESCO’s proclamation of the New World Information Order (cf. Norris, 2000). The term has been analysed both at global and regional levels, and has involved the investigation of socioeconomic contexts, global governance, policy issues, as well as cultural elements. The analysis of the digital divide on a global level may entail comparisons of large regions, between developed and developing countries, and between rural and urban areas. In modern consciousness, the phrase captures the disadvantages and inequalities of those who lack access or refrain from using ICTs in their everyday lives (Cullen, 2003).

The article highlights the issue of forming the information economy of Russia as a new evolutionary stage of development of economy and society. Formation of the information economy and society occurs through the information development on the basis of best international practices and includes the economic development of our country, as well as the widespread use of information and communication technologies. The author formulates the problems going with this process in today´s post-crisis development, associated with the revolutionary establishment of the information economy in Russia. Seamless exchange of information acts as the basis for the active introduction of innovations in the economy of modern countries and for the information economy formation. The author notes that the information economy development in our country is mainly due to the informatization of society. At the same time it is strategic goal, as strong economic growth is not possible without further introduction and development of information and communication technologies. The development of the information society and economy is characterized by the comprehensive focus and dynamism, because the collection, processing, storage and use of information act as the primary type of activity carried out through using a variety of tools and systems for information exchange. Therefore, the economy of the information society, is not only global in nature, but is a "virtual", based on the active use of a virtual environment for its development. The author analyzes the data on the deepening of the information process and progress of the Russian Federation in the field of information and communication technologies, as well as raises the problems caused by the uneven development of the information environment of the country and the world. In this connection it is necessary to develop and implement information development programs and policies of certain types of activity and society as a whole. The process of forming the information economy in Russia is very slow, but it is one of the most important conditions for sustainable development and further integration of our country into the global economy.

Telecommunications Infrastructure

One of the pillars of the technological revolution that began in the seventies was the development of the Internet. This network has evolved in such a way that it now forms a complex structure that radically changed the social and economic dynamics at the end of century XX. Nowadays, new technologies allow anything from communication and information exchange to the realization of complex financial transactions, all from anywhere in the world and almost instantaneously. In spite of the widespread use of the Internet, there are still territories and inhabitants, mostly emplaced in remote rural areas, who live outside of this technological revolution. By contrast, urban areas enjoy a privileged position in the dissemination of the information society by concentrating most of the telecommunications infrastructure and monopolize the most qualified people. But there are many disparities in terms of diffusion of new technologies and these will transfer, in turn, to the enterprise sector which is the subject of this research. The differences in the use of new technologies and more specifically the use of advanced services on the Internet are related to the sector where the population is employed and its level of training. One of the advanced services offered by the Network is teleworking. Nowadays there are companies that offer their employees the opportunity to develop their professional activities outside their headquarters, using their homes as an alternative or call centers enabled with computers and Internet access. The purpose of this research is the study of the consumption of Internet advanced services by companies in the metropolitan area of Madrid, analyzing the spread of telework in more detail,a potential offered by new technologies and which may modify the current pattern of mobility in the main urban areas because it is from here where big companies are guiding the global economy.

In the 21st century, the world became a sign of globalization: global conflicts, global disasters, global economy, global Internet, etc. The Polish researcher Casimir Zhigulsky defines globalization as a kind of process, that is, the target set of characteristic changes that develop over time and occur in the modern world. These changes in general are reduced to mutual rapprochement, reduction of distances, the rapid appearance of a large number of different connections, contacts, exchanges, and to increase the dependence of society in almost all spheres of his life from what is happening in other, often very remote regions of the world.
