The analysis of information business as outlined in the last section raises several issues of fundamental importance. I shall briefly discuss a few of them since they identify areas for further research work. If this is construed as one of the fundamental rights, then guaranteeing such a right is a preliminary requirement to benefit from information business, or to engage in such business. However, it is not self-evident what exactly is meant by such a right. In the first case, the implications of guaranteeing such an access are at the professional and political levels.
Critical facilitators are appropriate institutional structures.
To guarantee cognitive access to information and knowledge, the implications are at the personal and social levels. Critical facilitators are language skills and literacy. Secondly looking at the high value-added constituents of information business, it is not at all clear that standard economic analyses of business and industry throw much light on what is actually going on in conducting information business. Issues relating to capital goods, labour, labour-content, and so on, have no relevance to information business. There is no counterpart of a 'factory' in information business.
