We live in a society driven by rapid and unpredictable changes. The concept of the “fourth industrial revolution” was introduced less than ten years ago - the more aware and reality oriented “smart factories”. By this we mean novelties in production technologies, enabling IT services and greater attention to energy consumption. Today, we are discussing the fifth stage in the evolution of society, the advent of the 5.0 company. This book outlines strategic lines and suggests future directions for the development of the "super smart society" which takes responsibility and ensures sustainability by adhering to new smart technologies and skills. The book is intended for a broad audience working in the fields of material science and engineering, energy, environment, etc. It is an invaluable reference source for researchers, academicians, students, industrial institutions, government and independent institutes, individual research groups and scientists working in the field of industrial applications of smart manufacturing design.

Combining normative analysis and theory-driven empirical research in a comparative framework, this volume clarifies and explains the connections between regional international governance, legitimacy and democracy. It focuses on the quality of democracy and the legitimacy of policy making in multilevel regional systems. The volume offers a much-needed clarification of confusing concepts such as legitimacy, democracy and 'civil society' in non-national political systems. It critically assesses the quality of democracy and legitimacy within different Regional International Organizations (RIOs); it examines how networks of non-state actors become a kind of transnational civil society and assesses their potential for solving legitimacy deficits; and it investigates the impact of democratic conditionality in different RIOs. The contributors deepen our understanding of a relatively new non-state actor on the international scene - the regional international organization - and investigate the potential contribution of transnational non-state actors to the quality of governance at the regional level.
