An Ethical Global Information Society: Culture and democracy revisited: IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology

Editat de Jacques J. Berleur, Diane Whitehouse
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 1997
Many challenges lie ahead in the development of a global information society. Culture and democracy are two areas which may be under particular threat. The book reflects on today's complex and uncertain cultural and democratic developments arising as a result of an increasingly global, technologically-connected world. In particular it focuses on the Internet, examining new metaphors for communication, defining the issues at stake and proposing options, actions and solutions. Among the issues discussed were: multi-cultural developments; cultural sensitivities and the involvement of cultural minorities; generation gaps; gender issues; technology access for the elderly and the disabled; technology transfer.
