DEVELOPMENT OF A KNOWLEDGE-BASED ECONOMY IN POLAND

ABSTRACT In order to maintain the high level of growth in a knowledge-based economy, it is essential to create the special atmosphere in a social environment that supports its development. The development of a knowledge-based economy requires human capital, the appropriate development of an information infrastructure, and national innovation systems to be interlinked. The main actions for creating the knowledge-based economy in European-Union–accessing countries are as follows: 1. building institution for research and development and a system of economical incentives. 2. developing an educational system that enables the creation of intellectual capital. 3. building the national information infrastructure, focusing on providing easy access to teleinformation technologies and its promotion and application in central organs of public administration and local governance in the public and private sector, as well as building the basis of a civil society.
