Abstract

The purpose of this study is to study the approaches to the definition of the essence of the digital economy in the context of the ontology of the philosophy of modern economics. The article analyzes three approaches describing the content of the digital economy, some of which are accepted in world practice, and some are described in Russia at the legislative level. Based on the analysis, it was concluded that the level of development of information and communication technologies determines the opportunities for the development of the digital economy, in which data in digital form is a key factor in production. The features associated with the description of the IT sector in the International Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activities and in Russian Practice are considered. The problem described by the authors as “the absence of identical statistical aggregates in determining the essence of the digital economy” is noted.
