What happened during the switch to the digital economy?
The massive switch to the digital economy has become an advancement for several emerging powers, including China, India, Japan, and Korea with which to challenge the longer-term U.S. dominance, unlike the old notion of imperialism developed. These countries have presumably competed with Western countries, and they are supposed to build a new global order with their advanced digital technologies. However, there are doubts as to whether non-Western ICT corporations have reorganized the global flow and constructed a balance between the West and the East. The panacea of technology may reduce imperialism and domination to vestiges of the past; however, technology will always be the reality of human hierarchy and domination and digital technologies have buttressed U.S. hegemony. In particular, when the debates reach platforms, non-Western countries have not, and likely cannot, construct a balanced global order, because of Google Facebook, Twitter and Apple’s iPhones are indices of the dominance of the U.S. in the digital economy. Therefore, this has created a platform for a possible conflict.
