Abstract

Russian Abstract: С ростом применения ИКТ технологий и развитием цифровой экономики в конце прошлого и начале нового столетия вопросы конкуренции, её природы и роли в экономике появились в новом свете и с новой силой. Исходя из положений известной теории пяти сил Майкла Портера многие ожидали, что применение интернета приведёт к росту конкуренции, оказав огромное воздействие как на стороне предложения, так особенно на стороне спроса. Некоторые исследования казалось бы подтверждали такие надежды. Но, другие эмпирические данные и соответствующие исследования показали, что это не совсем так, и что подтверждается альтернативная теория «Победитель забирает всё», согласно которой конкуренция развивается в направлении монополистической конкуренции. Ситуация в Сербии, оказавшейся в некоторых исследованиях в группе стран зарождающихся лидеров в области ИКТ, пока не ясна. Основы использования ИКТ уже положены, но электронный бизнес пока не столь развит. Эмпирических исследований влияния интернета и ИКТ на конкуренцию нет, но быстрое развитие этих отраслей внушает, что конкуренция пока достаточно сильна. Это особенно можно сказать про самый сектор ИКТ, который является самой быстро развивающейся отрасли в сербской экономике. English Abstract: On the ground of the use of ICT technology and the digital economy development at the end of past and beginning of new century the competition issues, its nature and role in the economy appeared in new light and with new power. Many people expected, based on the famous Porter’s theory of five forces, the competition has to grow through the internet use, with huge impact on the supply as well the demand. Some researches seemed to claim these expectations. But, other empirical evidence and appropriated researches shown that there it is no such. They have shown that the alternative theory was claimed. According this theory “Winner-takes-all” the competition development leads to monopolistic competition. Situation in Serbia, which in some researches was named emerged leader in the ICT area, is unclear still. Bases of the ICT use are placed, but electronic business is not yet so developed. There is the lack of empirical researches of the impact of internet and ICT on the competition, but fast development of such branches suggests that competition is strong. This can be say especially for ICT sector, which is the branch with fastest development in Serbian economy.
