SMART CITIES
• The first approach focuses on human capital. • The second approach focuses on technological
progress. • The third approach is based on a normative
question: What are the skills that people and citizens shall have to be digitally literate in the XXI century?
• It is important to study the human capital literature, followed by theories focusing on technology as a main driver of changes.
• To complement the analysis with a new perspective, bringing about the question of what does it means to be a smart citizen in the XXI century.
