Navigationshilfen für die Internet-Ökonomie

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Dominik K. Heger; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

In einer Internet-Okonomie sind zunehmend Leislungen verfugbar, die als Systemprodukt verstanden werden konnen. Dies bedeutet, das bei einer Nutzenbeurteilung des Kunden nicht die jeweilige Teilleistung eines Unternehmens, sondern das Gesamtergebnis — Systemprodukt — im Vordergrund steht. Folglich stehen die Teilleistungen in einem komplementaren Verhaltnis zueinander.

The Emergence of the Internet Economy

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

The changes taking place at present are sending shock waves through the media and communications markets and causing great uncertainty among all market participants concerned. The dynamism of the age has led to new concep tions of time: Internet years are like dogs’ years, passing seven times as quickly as normal! Time-honoured strategy models are continuously losing validity. In June 1998 the Chief Operating Officer of Yahoo (www.yahoo.com) announced that the maximum head start that a company can hope to achieve through a new technology has now sunk to 60 days. One thing is certain: “The times, they are a-changing.”

Schäffle and Cooley on Public Opinion

Esteban López-Escobar; Ruth Breeze

Sixty years ago, Harwood and Cartier (1953a) suggested that the progress in certain areas of knowledge tended “to underscore the need for a general theory of communication”. In view of the vast range of different proposals from different disciplines, they concluded that whatever else, they had to avoid emulating the character invented by Stephen Leacock, who “mounted his horse and rode off furiously in all directions.” Communications theorists have charged around enthusiastically ever since then, leading us to the situation described by Donsbach (2006), who emphasizes that, despite the extraordinary way in which communication has flourished in academia, it still lacks an identity of its own as a field of research, or perhaps has even actually lost the one it originally had. Although a considerable volume of empirical evidence exists concerning the communication process, this area of research can increasingly be seen to be suffering from a kind of erosion on the one hand, and a flawed epistemology on the other.

Vorwort Der European Communication Council

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Dominik K. Heger; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

Auf Initiative von Michael Wolfle und Hans Lauber von der MGM Media-Gruppe Munchen entstand 1996 die Idee des „European Communication Council“ als einer kleinen Gruppe vorwiegend europaischer Kommunikationswissenschaftler mit einer ungewohnlich reizvollen Aufgabe: Beitrage aus der europaischen (und internationalen) Kommunikationswissenschaft zur Analyse der Entwicklung der Medien- und Kommunikationsindustrien in die Diskussion der Entscheider einzubringen, und Themen von besonderer Relevanz fur die zukunftige Entwicklung zu benennen. In den verschiedenen wissenschaftlichen Fachern, die sich mit der Entwicklung der Kommunikationsindustrien beschaftigen, und in den zahlreichen Ansatzen in verschiedenen Forschungseinrichtungen vieler Lander haben sich zum Teil hoch spezialisierte und zum Teil auserordentlich interessante Diskussionsstrange entwickelt. Die in diesen Diskussionen entstandenen Beitrage sind bereits fur Wissenschaftler schwer zu uberschauen — und ganz unmoglich wird das fur Entscheider und Visionare in den Unternehmen und in der Politik, deren operative Kernaufgaben ihnen keine Zeit lassen fur das Sichten und Verarbeiten einer solchen Vielfalt und Vielzahl wissenschaftlicher Texte. Daraus entsteht die Aufgabe des European Communication Council: das weite Feld der aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Diskussion zu sondieren und daraus diejenigen Trends und Themen herauszuarbeiten, die fur die zukunftige Entwicklung der Medien- und Kommunikationsindustrien besonders wichtig sind, und die als Anregung fur die Diskussion der Visionare und Entscheider geeignet sind.

The Media and Communications Sectors: A Review Looking Forward

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

The following section concentrates on an investigation into the media sector as the most conspicuous area of the media and communication industry. Along with the classic print media (newspapers, magazines and books), this includes the field of cinema and video films, the sound-carrier branch, as well as the broad casting sector with radio and television.

Facts and Figures — Appendix

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

The following appendix of tables (and figures derived from them) gives an owerview of the developments of European media and communication markets, and — to allow benchmarking-type comparisons — of those in the USA and Japan. As a rule, the most recent five years covered by consistent data have been included; for basic demographic and economic data we have included projections for future developments. This appendix thus supports our analysis in the preceding chapters.

Fundamental Principles of the Network Economy

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

The focus of this report is an economic analysis of the media and communications sectors, or in other words media, telecommunications and information technology (IT). The following remarks are more than a mere description of the market reality in these sectors, but also an attempt to provide an insight into the most fundamental aspects of the way they function. For this purpose, three specific concepts are introduced that will facilitate a brief overview of the key economic features of the media and communications sectors.

The Internet Economy as a Strategic Challenge

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

Reality is changing. The Internet economy is spreading to more and more areas of the national economy. This is based on a new electronic infrastructure that is speeding up the change from physical atoms to digital bits and making tried and trusted strategies increasingly ineffectual Though only coming to light gradually, the consequences are radical.

Navigation Aids for the Internet Economy

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

An Internet economy is characterised by the availability of an increasing number of goods and services that are best understood as system products. This means that when customers judge the product value it is not the individual part that counts but the product as a whole (in other words the system product). The individual subsystems thus stand in a relation of complementarity to one another.

Grundlagen der Internet-Ökonomie

Axel Zerdick; Arnold Picot; Klaus Schrape; Alexander Artopé; Klaus Goldhammer; Dominik K. Heger; Ulrich T. Lange; Eckart Vierkant; Esteban López-Escobar; Roger Silverstone

In diesem Bericht steht die okonomische Analyse der Medien- und Kommunikations-Sektoren, das heist Medien, Telekommunikation und Informationstechnologie (IT), im Vordergrund. Die folgenden Ausfuhrungen sind mehr als eine reine Beschreibung der Marktrealitat in diesen Sektoren. Vielmehr soll ein Einblick in die grundlegenden Funktionsweisen vermittelt werden. Dazu werden drei Konzepte vorgestellt, die einen kurzen Uberblick uber wichtige okonomische Sachverhalte des Medien- und Kommunikations-Sektors ermoglichen und anschliesend auf die in diesem Zusammenhang bedeutende Ressource Aufmerksamkeit eingegangen: 2.1 Systematisierung moglicher Formen zur Generierung von Erlosstromen 2.2 Darstellung des Konzepts der Wertschopfungsketten 2.3 Problematik der Charakterisierung von Erlosquellen und -potentialen 2.4 Aufmerksamkeit als knappe Ressource in der Internet-Okonomie
