Abstract
The article is devoted to the processes of clustering in the conditions of development of network economy, post-industrial society. The production of intellectual product and new technologies is becoming more profitable and monopolized by developed countries. Today they are suppliers of a qualitatively new unlimited resource – information and knowledge, receiving at a deliberately reduced cost limited material resources from the countries of the world periphery. This division of labor creates a new mechanism for the formation and distribution of wealth. This division of labor creates a new mechanism for the formation and distribution of wealth. The hallmarks of an information society are: an increase in the role of information and knowledge in society; an increase in the share of information communications, products and services in the gross domestic product; creation of a global information space that provides effective information interaction of people, their access to world information resources and their needs for information products and services. The issues of network economy as a conductor of post-industrial society and clustering are revealed. States that do not join the technological process remain on the sidelines of global economic transformation and risk disappearing as independent. XX century was characterized by rapid transformation processes, which covered all groups of countries, had different nature of implementation and, accordingly, different results. Such views once again confirm the need for countries to achieve self-organization, gaining the opportunity to develop progressively, to be dynamic. Foreign experience of clustering is studied and attention is paid to European states. They are implemented in accordance with the decisions of the EU Lisbon Summit held in 2000 with the aim of introducing in the member states of the Union a knowledge economy capable of ensuring competitiveness on the basis of innovation clusters that exceeds the performance of the US and Japanese economies. In Ukraine, cluster potential exists in agriculture, food and metal production, oil, gas, transport services and logistics. We will leave for further development the interdependence of the quantity / quality of the country's labor force and the information component in the context of clustering development. Of course, the availability of skilled labor is an indicator of economic development and the availability of active information space.
