Resumo: | This paper aims two goals: on the one hand, I will study the main characteristics of the different markets linked to electronic platforms and social networks. On the other hand, I will elaborate a function of social welfare to capture the positive and negative externalities produced by the development of these markets. I will highlight the information asymmetries that characterize the dynamics of these markets and study the implications linked to the opacity of this system. In a first part, I will highlight the main characteristics of the markets linked to this digital economy. In a second part, I will study this economy in relation to a specific welfare function. In a third part, I will show to what extent new forms of information asymmetries appear in these markets, and I will study the implications in terms of social welfare, emphasizing the economic, legal and political dimensions. Keywords: Digital Economy - Externalities- Social Welfare - Democracy. JEL Codes: D86, D85, D82 |

Por otro lado, elaboraré una función de bienestar social para tratar de capturar las externalidades positivas y negativas producidas por el desarrollo de estos mercados. Destacaré las asimetrías de información que caracterizan la dinámica de estos mercados y estudiaré las implicaciones vinculadas a la opacidad de este sistema, enfatizando las dimensiones económica, legal y política. En una primera parte, destacaré las principales características de los mercados vinculados a esta economía digital. En una segunda parte, estudiaré esta economía en relación con una función de bienestar específica. En una tercera parte, mostraré hasta qué punto aparecen nuevas formas de asimetrías de información en estos mercados, y estudiaré las implicaciones en términos de bienestar social.O objetivo deste trabalho é duplo: por um lado, pretendo estudar as principais características dos diferentes mercados ligados às plataformas eletrônicas e às redes sociais e, por outro lado, elaborar uma função de bem-estar social para tentar capturar as externalidades positivas e negativas produzidas pelo desenvolvimento desses mercados.
