This book provides an extensive overview of the diffusion of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in developing countries between 2000 and 2012. It covers issues such as country-specific ICT diffusion patterns, technological substitution and technological convergence. By identifying social, economic and institutional prerequisites and analyzing critical country-specific conditions, the author develops a new approach to explaining the emergence of their technological takeoff. Readers will discover how developing countries are now adopting ICTs, rapidly catching up with the developed world in terms of ICT access and use.

This book tells a story about Information and Communication Technologies' diffusion in 46 economically backward countries between 2000 and 2012, offering to the reader a fresh perspective on the issues discussed. It examines the spread of ICT from four broadly defined perspectives that highlight the major aims and scope of this work. These perspectives are: • Explaining the ICTs diffusion patterns and the dynamics of the process itself; • Detecting technological substitution; • Examining technological convergence; • Identifying the 'critical conditions' that enhanced the emergence of the 'technological take-off.' By convention, the central focus of this book is on developing countries, although this group of economies is extremely heterogeneous, and examining them is a challenging task. Per capita income varies significantly across the group; however, these countries also differ with respect to level of social development, economic performance, political regimes, dominant religion and, for example, population density. These differences matter, not only because they shape a country`s individual features but also because they heavily predetermine a country`s ability to develop in various ways and - as in our case - to assimilated ICT. Additionally, we argue that treating all 46 countries within the scope of this book as an aggregate may be misleading. Hence, we deliberately disaggregated the evidence and analysed each country individually. Such an approach allows the unveiling of significant differences among and unique characteristics of examined economies. Treating the countries as one homogeneous group would have resulted in a loss of information and an inability to present the above-mentioned differences and characteristics.

"""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."

This book examines the role that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) play in growth and economic development promotion, specifically for developing countries. It highlights multiple methodologies for quantifying the impact of ICTs. This includes quantitative and qualitative methods, but also novel, conclusive and informative methodological approaches for measuring ICTs influence on economic development. The book highlights trends, perspectives, and success stories for different developing countries. ICTs bring new business models, innovations, capital-labor substitution, improved goods and services to developing markets. Because they can spread rapidly, with little cost and require minimal skills for usage, ICTs create a solid background for social and economic gains. They enable significant reduction in information asymmetries, which improves access to economic activities for multitude of agents, fostering participation, inter alias in labor market of disadvantaged societal groups. After almost two decades of rapid diffusion of ICT in developing world, this book seeks to assess the real benefits and consequences of ICTs adoption in developing countries. The chapters use broad, real-world based evidence to provide a better understanding of the precise nature of new technologies and their impact of the country`s economy and society.
