Abstract

In the last decades, the Information Society (IS) paradigm has brought together various research lines related to the diffusion and adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and their contribution to economic, social and human development. On the other hand, other research lines have recently explored the phenomenon of Economic Complexity (EC), providing new metrics to quantify this decisive factor for the prediction of economic growth and other human relevant variables. This article explores these two trends with the construction of two composite indexes. Then, it evaluates their explanatory power to predict economic growth, first separately, and afterwards together. The results show they can predict economic growth and improve their predictive capacity by working combined. In the conclusions, some difficulties and challenges for the development of these metrics are analyzed.

经济复杂性和信息社会范式:解释经济增长的混合贡献

在过去的几十年里，信息社会(IS)范式汇集了与信息通信技术(ict)的传播和采用及其对经济、社会和人类发展的贡献相关的各种研究方向。另一方面，其他研究路线最近探索了经济复杂性(EC)现象，为预测经济增长和其他人类相关变量提供了量化这一决定性因素的新指标。本文通过构建两个综合指数来探讨这两种趋势。然后，首先分别评估它们对预测经济增长的解释力，然后一起评估。结果表明，二者结合运用，可以有效预测经济增长，提高预测能力。在结论部分，分析了这些指标发展面临的困难和挑战。
