An innovative discussion of the impact of the Internet revolution on advanced and developing countries.
Information technology has become a constant presence in contemporary life, infiltrating community, business and state affairs. This book discusses the current uses and problems of IT in both developing and advanced countries, focussing on the ways in which IT changes society without neglecting the problematic aspects of the Internet revolution such as computer crime and the lack of professionals with computer literacy, particularly from a developing country's perspective. It examines such issues as the characteristics of network economies, connectivity pricing, Internet access, regulation, changes in supply chains, IT gaps between supply and demand, productivity increases, and the digital divide. Emanuele Giovannetti, Mitsuhiro Kagami and Masatsugu Tsuji have gathered together a group of international experts in economics and trade who discuss the impact of this revolution globally, looking at countries or regions including the UK, EU, Central and Eastern Europe, US, Japan, India, South Africa, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and China.
