Abstract
The “Digital Era Framework” is a reference framework for the digital information age presented by Jörn Lengsfeld. Targeted at science and practice alike, the concept offers a comprehensive approach for the analysis and assessment of phenomena of digital change, digitization and digital transformation.
The “Digital Era Framework” is based on an integrated approach to examine digital change, in so far as the original state, the occuring change and final state can be represented in a uniform scheme.
The framework emphasises information as the central point of consideration. Therefore it is based on two factors as main moments of order that define the structure of the scheme: the form of manifestation of information on the one hand and the type of application of information on the other.
The forms of “manifestation” describe the state in which information manifests itself, in which imformation takes shape. These forms of “manifestation” constitute demarcable information spaces, which are referred to as spheres. Four spheres are being differentiated within the framework.
“Application” stands for any kind of handling of information. The “Digital Era Framework” distinguishes seven archetypes of the use, modification and formation of information, which are called modes of information application.
The spheres and modes create a two-dimensional frame of reference that allows for a differentiated classification of phenomena, objects and events. This order model is particularly suitable for studying entire systems and processes. By positioning their individual elements in relation to the spheres and modes, it can be shown how the structure and interaction pattern of theses systemes and processes are shaped and how this configuration may change as a result of digitization.
Providing a theoretically well-founded systematization, the framework provides a solid basis for analyses, explanations and forecasts. At the same time, it serves as a basis for the development and evaluation of strategies.
Providing a theoretically well-founded systematization, the framework provides a solid basis for analyses, explanations and forecasts. At the same time, it serves as a basis for the development and evaluation of strategies.
The presentation of the “Digital Era Framework” is also aimed at contributing to the development of an adequate technical terminology by proposing a well-founded nomenclature based on the reference framework. The book therefore contains an extensive glossary with about 430 key words.
In times of disruptive change, rapid knowledge transfer is crucial. For knowledge to be effective, new ideas and concepts must be able to spread rapidly.
Therefore, a digital edition of the book is available here for free download for personal use.
