Abstract

Second part discusses the change in scientific knowledge and its increasingly convergent nature; the convergence between technologies and humans, their increasing interconnectivity and interdependence; the emergence of digital ecosystems and new forms of value generation; and finally the consequences for politicoeconomic systems and the need for systematic changes in them, through which to respond to the challenges dictated by technological convergence, by its emergent and synergistic characteristics, and through them, to the exponential changes at all levels of societies.
