The emergence of the digital society has profound sociological consequences. I myself, in a few days when I start my vacation, will be away from a digital environment (computer, internet, for the longest time in recent years: just over three weeks. Educated in the 'internet era' - what they call 'digital natives' - there are those who give other names and assure that young people belong to Generation Y or the Einstein Generation... Others speak of the copy-paste, at, screen generation, of the visual generation, of 'gamer generation'.My father always laughs and assures that with so many keyboards and consoles our thumbs are going to grow. economic-structure-change The penultimate to analyze these issues has been Jeroen Boschma, author of Generación Einstein (Editorial Gestión 2000), who with that name undoubtedly emphasizes the positive side of the generation. Positive values emerge, of confidence in the future and in their purely post-materialist personal possibilities (Inglehart already announced it here) as a result of a time of prosperity and economic growth.
For Boschma, the circumstance of living in a digital environment has consequences on the way of thinking: "it has given them a way of processing information that is closer to Einstein (creative and multidisciplinary) than to Newton (rational, logical and linear)." According to guru Francis Pisani, “the biggest difference is that the natives are New World scribes capable of creating the instruments they use. And when they do not believe them, they use in a particular way what is within their reach. The idea of packaging certain age groups is not new: the X or the baby-boom. Although for a long time more Industry Email List than definitions by age, studies have focused on social behavior. At the same time, we are registering a significant rise in the so-called creative class , which is also a consequence of this digital phenomenon. This is an important phenomenon because experts assure that the rise of this cultural and economic elite will mark the future of work: with 20% of independent professionals, 40% of freelancers stably linked to companies and 40% of classic employees.

As Richard Florida, author of The Rise of the Creative Class, said, creativity has become the great factor of economic success. In this way, a large part of the economic development of the territories responds to the ability to attract, train and maintain this brand new social class. It is largely a generational issue: experts talk about the three Ts (technology, talent and tolerance) which are nothing more than the result of demographic evolution itself. According to Cinco Días: «All creative? For future researcher Matthias Horx, the two big trends of the coming decades will be: forms of flexible work and the rise of the creative class. But the precursor of this new elite, Richard Florida, points out the risk of creating a gap between it and the rest of society, and warns that the great dilemma of the new era will be the geographical concentration of talented, highly skilled people. qualified and prepared. For his part, Thomas Beyerle believes that becoming a creative city cannot be planned because it is a process 'quite casual and subject to fashions of between 5 and 10 years, and these types of people cannot care.
