Use of New Information and Communication Technologies by UK Pressure Groups and the Developing World

Abstract

Discusses the debate about whether or not the less developed countries of the world are going to be allowed greater access and control over their information. Looks at the results of a research project based on information gathering including appraisal of IT support services available and presents the main conclusions. Notes that it is not just the volume of people and groups using the new technologies in this field but the new ways and new applications to which the technology is being put that is so interesting.
