Improving Cross-border Cooperation in Digital Europe. A Discourse Analysis on Digital Challenges in Poland and Georgia
Journal Title: EUROLIMES - Year 2018, Vol 25, Issue 25
Abstract
Internet usage continues to explode across the world and digital technology impacts country’s economic growth. This article contributes to the understanding of the current digital challenges in the EU and the EaP countries. Due to the large community of the EU and the EaP countries this study concentrates on two representatives of these communities – Poland as a member of the EU and Georgia as the EaP country. This article addresses the arising issues and programmes, which are provided under the Digital Single Market strategy adopted in 2015. This article demonstrates digital challenges in Poland and Georgia and assesses if, and to what extent, they are specific to one country. This article shows if Polish and Georgian needs are coherent or if any of the best practices implemented in Poland might be adopted in Georgia. Finally, it tries to suggest other solutions known from different EU programmes to be applied in Georgia or other EaP countries.
