Synopsis Networked World and National ICT Development Strategies for Selected East Asian Countries by : Thi Luc Hoa Pham
Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1.3, University of Wuppertal, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this paper is three-fold: - To identify the characteristics and political options of a country, that would affect the success of its ICT adoption. - To identify clusters of nations upon the international ICT indices and GNI per capita - To provide an overall guideline that incorporates these nations toward developing higher ICT indices. [...] This paper shows income level and social background can play very important roles in country ́s ICT development. Within Asian region, South Korea represents the developed group, China and Vietnam characterize the developing group. China and Vietnam have similar political structure but the first is much bigger than the latter. Therefore, ICT implementation is different between these 2 countries. This paper is organized as follow, first, short overviews of ICT development as well as the advantages of ICT. Second, 3 countries (South Korea, China and Vietnam) are described in details in both national characteristics and ICT performance. In this section, the ICT industry and development of each country are analyzed in terms of what they have done to adopt ICT as well as how much progress has been made. In section 4, the information about popular ICT ranking indices are given. The 10 three chosen indices are Networked Readiness Index, Digital Economy Ranking and ICT Development Index. The empirical research of cluster building for 12 selected countries is presented in Section 5. In the final section, the guidelines for better ICT adoption are presented. In particularly, Vietnam and China are discussed in more details and their political recommendation is drawn. The data used in this paper are mostly from World Bank, Information Technology Union. The indicators and indexes provided are for 2010 or 2011. Because the crisis from 2007-2009 could affect negatively in the world economy and ICT particularly, GNI per capita and GDP growth rate of 2010 present relatively better research result.

Synopsis 2006 Information and Communications for Development by :
"""The report is essential reading for policy makers, government workers, and academics pursuing the goal of equitable, sustainable development across the world."" - N. R. Narayana Murthy, Chairman and Chief Mentor Infosys Technologies Ltd. Information and communication technology (ICT) is rapidly evolving, changing rich and poor societies alike. It has become a powerful tool for participating in the global economy and for offering new opportunities for development efforts. ICT can and should advance economic growth and reduce poverty in developing countries. It has been 20 years since the first telephone operator was privatized, a little over 10 since the World Wide Web emerged, and 5 since the telecommunications bubble burst. How have the ICT sector and its role in development evolved? What have we learned? How can we move forward? Information and Communications for Development 2006: Global Trends and Policies contains lessons from both developed and developing countries. It examines the roles of the public and private sectors, identifying the challenges and the benefits of adopting and expanding ICT use. The report assesses topics essential to building an information society, including investment, access, diffusion, and country policies and strategies. Assessing what has worked, what hasn't, and why, this report is an invaluable guide for understanding how to capture the benefits of ICT around the world."

Synopsis Status of Implementation of e-Agriculture in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Agriculture is becoming increasingly knowledge intensive: farmers have to make more and more complex decisions on the use of their land, the selection of the agricultural commodities they plant, the choice of markets on which to sell their agricultural products and other key decisions that impact their livelihoods and that of society. The development of ICTs is a major driver of economic growth. It is also an accelerator for innovation and change. FAO has been promoting the use of ICTs in agriculture and has focused on ICT innovation in improving agricultural production and value chains. However, innovation is an elusive combination of people, processes and technologies. Many projects put technology alone at the core of proposed solutions intended to address emerging and existing challenges, but this is not a sustainable solution in many cases. Recently, FAO and the International Telecommunication Union, have jointly prepared a National e-Agriculture Strategy Guide which aims to help countries mainstream ICTs into agriculture and develop or revitalize e-agriculture strategies in line with agricultural goals and priorities. This paper is intended to assist policy-makers and stakeholders of e-agriculture in transition economies to map the policy and technological environment in their countries, would show case e-agriculture initiatives in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia and provide with recommendations on formulation of e-agriculture strategies.

Synopsis Networked Public by : Wei He
This book coins the term “Networked Public” to describe the active social actors in new media ecology. The author argues that, in today’s network society, Networked Public Communication is different than, yet has similarities with, mass communication and interpersonal communication. As such it is the emergent paradigm for research. The book reviews the historical, technological and social context for the rising of Networked Public, analyzes its constituents and characteristics, and discusses the categories and features of social media in China. By analyzing abundant cases from recent years, the book provides answers to the key questions at micro, meso and macro-levels, including how information flows under regulation in the process of Networked Public Communication; what its features and models are; what collective action strategies and“resistance culture”have been developed as a result of Internet regulate; the nature of power games among Networked Public, mass media, political forces and capital, and the links with the development of Chinese civil society.

Synopsis Remapping Knowledge by : Mihai I. Spariosu
The growing interdependence of the local and the global demand innovative approaches to human development. Such approaches, the author argues, ought to be based on the emerging ethics of global intelligence, defined as the ability to understand, respond to, and work toward what will benefit all human beings and will support and enrich all life on this planet. As no national or supranational authority can predefine or predetermine it, global intelligence involves long-term, collective learning processes and can emerge only from continuing intercultural research, dialogue, and cooperation. In this book, the author elaborates the basic principles of a new field of intercultural studies, oriented toward global intelligence. He proposes concrete research and educational programs that would help create intercultural learning environments designed to stimulate sustainable human development throughout the world.
