ABSTRACT
In surveys conducted for this monograph, three research methods have been used. The first of these, or content analysis of the literature on the subject matter, was performed during preliminary studies as well as attempts to confirm several research hypotheses. The first method involved analysis of publications about the concept of technological determinism, assigning a critical role to technical and technological issues and related transformations in shaping the modern society and the economy as well as showing the impact of digital technology platforms (DTPs) on companies’ business activities.
