Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren. Very little has been published on the global experience with information technology, particularly in a context that encompasses both developed and developing countries. While there has been much discussion about IT's potential to transform economic development, rigorous analysis documenting the global situation is lacking. This report aims to explore IT usage in the developing world, identify barriers to IT adoption, and derive lessons that can inform policies to bridge the international digital divide. The report offers a comprehensive analysis of IT diffusion and use across 70 countries, featuring three main components: a series of country rankings based on various IT readiness criteria, essays by experts addressing key IT issues relevant to the developing world, and country profiles that detail the IT landscape and trends in each nation. The methodology is ambitious, relying on data collected through surveys of global business leaders. The depth and breadth of the issues covered make this report a unique and valuable resource for understanding how to extend the benefits of IT to developing countries.…
