Abstract

This paper investigates some of the underlying forces that are propelling us towards the virtual economy. Special attention is brought to the industrial restructuring that is now taking place, to the role that virtual enterprises are playing in this transition, and to how these enterprises are reconfigurating themselves by acting as product integrators. Ce document présente brièvement les quatre éléments moteurs qui sous-tendent l'économie virtuelle pour examiner ensuite la restructuration industrielle qui prend place actuellement, le rôle des entreprises virtuelles ainsi que la façon dont ces dernières se réorganisent en tant qu'intégrateurs de produits.
