长期以来，主流观点认为劳动力国际化主要局限于工业制造领域。然而，现在有迹象表明，服务业就业，或者更准确地说，信息工作，也已成为全球化的焦点。结果，信息化的新阶段出现了，其特点是互联网的崛起，成为新的全球行动空间和国际分工的新机会。对于几乎所有涉及数字化信息的活动来说，全球信息网络创造了一个新的、全球可访问的生产空间。通过这种方式，可以在许多劳动过程中实时弥合地理距离。本文通过“IT 出口”项目 (www.export-it.de) 在印度和德国进行的采访，通过 IT 行业和印度作为 IT 发展中心的崛起到新的战略地位来说明这种发展的动态。
For a long time, it was the mainstream view that the internationalisation of labour is limited primarily to industrial manufacturing. However there are now signs that service employmrnt, or more precisely, information work, has also become a focus of globalisation. As a result, a new phase of informatisation has arisen, characterised by the rise of the internet as a new global space of action and new opportunities for an international division of labour For almost any activity comprising work with digitised information, global information networks have created a new, globally accessible space of production. By this means, geographical distances can be bridged in real time in many labour processes. The dynamics of this development are illustrated in this paper by the IT Industry and the rise of India to a new strategic position as a site for IT development, drawing on interviews carried out in India and Germany by the ‘Export IT’ project (www.export-it.de).
