Development, Democracy, and the Village Telephone
內容大綱
Conventional thinking about Third-World development rejects the idea of state-of-the-art technology for villages that lack adequate water, power, food, and literacy. But the author argues that modern telecommunications and electronic information systems are completely appropriate technologies even for the poorest regions of the world. Why? First, telecom is indispensable in mobilizing the resources necessary to meet basic human needs. Second, information technology is the greatest democratizer the world has ever seen.
