For millennia, social development was tantamount
to social survival: the daily goal of people, with the
exception of a tiny ruling minority, was to get by, make a
family, and steal a few moments of joy out of the harshness
of the human condition. This is still the lot of many. Yet over
the last two centuries, with the advent of the industrial age,
social development came to involve the goal of improving
people’s livelihood. Capital accumulation and investment,
technological development geared towards material
production, and massive inputs of labor and natural resources
were the generators of wealth, both under capitalism and
under statism. Social struggles and political reform or
revolution took care of diffusing the harvest of productivity
within society at large, albeit2 with the shortcomings of a
world divided between North and South, and organized in
class societies that tended to reproduce themselves.
There is something new in the information age. It
can be empirically argued that at the source of productivity
and competitiveness (that jointly determine the generation of
wealth and its differential appropriation by economic units),
there is the capacity to generate new knowledge and to
process relevant information efficiently. To be sure,
information and knowledge have always been essential
factors in power and production. Yet it is only when new
information and communication technologies empower
humankind with the ability incessantly to feed knowledge
back into knowledge, experience into experience, that there
is, at the same time, unprecedented productivity potential,
and an especially close link between the activity of the mind,
on the one hand, and material production, be it of goods or
services, on the other.
tantamount – being almost the same or having the same effect;
albeit – used to reduce to strength and effect of what has just been said,
although.
