| Abstract |
The paper is basing its analytical approach on two assumptions: the first refers to a significant change taking place in the contemporary world economy - the phenomenon of multipolarity - and proposes a new concept, that of multi-level manifestation of multipolarity; the second has in view the need of a new model of sustainable economic growth. In the context of these two points of view, the paper analyzes the sharing economy as a potential significant contributor to sustainable economic growth. The conclusion of this research is that the sharing economy has a huge potential of involving millions or even billions of participants and of capitalizing on the existing assets while providing spillover effects in the economy. The authors expect the sharing economy to become a form of economic activity that will complement traditional forms of business while generating positive economic, social and environmental effects. |
