the
digital divides in Asia
This
page is under construction. For the moment there's more detail
on the following page, which highlights work by the Digital
Opportunity Task Force and other bodies.
background
As general background we've found Information Technology
Diffusion in the Asia Pacific: Perspectives on Policy, Electronic
Commerce & Education (Hershey, Idea 99) edited by
Felix Tan, Scott Corbett & Yuk Wong to be useful. We've
noted the Electronic Journal on Information Systems in
Developing Countries (EJISDC)
elsewhere in this profile.
China in the Information Age: Telecommunications and the
Dilemmas of Reform, (New York, Praeger 97) by Milton Mueller
& Zixiang Tan offers a broader perspective on the consequences
of connectivity. James Larson's The Telecommunications
Revolution in Korea (Oxford, Oxford Uni Press 95) predates
recent market developments but offers an insight into national
regulatory structures and policy objectives.
