Abstract

In a rapidly changing global context, this article sets out to examine certain tendencies which bring themes of international trade and economic geography of territories into close relation. It seems increasingly difficult to explain strategies of firms without reference to the logic, which dictates where they locate their productive activities. We tried to identify the role of ICT in determining the logic of localisation, mainly by analysing the situation in East European transition countries through an approach based on the economy of proximities.
