Wolfgang Glatthaar International Business Machines (IBM), Gennany The rapid developments in infonnation technology (IT) will continue through the coming years. New application areas will be added. Whereas the use of infonnation technology in the past decade has been concentrated primarily on business and public administration, in future the suppliers of infonnation technology will develop an increasing number of applications for the private household (see fig. 1).

New perspective on information technology This development has already generated considerable market dynamics. Latest forecasts for the USA suggest that by 1996 at the latest the private household will present greater sales potential for home computers than business and public administration. VI Preface Up to now the use of infonnation technology in the private household has not been regarded as highly significant by either business or science, even though PCs have become widespread in the private sphere. In the ESPRIT framework there have been individual projects dealing with home networks, and in a number of Asian and European countries, as well as America, experiments with interactive television are taking place. Internet and commercial online services are experiencing rapid growth. This application area for infonnation technology in the private household, which is generating increasing business attention, must also be the subject of appropriate research activities.

Human-centredness: A Challenge to Post-industrial Europe? The key power in industrial society has been linked to the possession of capital and factory. In the "information society" it could be rather different. If one accepts that that the key power in the information society will be linked not so much to the ownership of information but to human creativity nourished by that information, the productive force of today and tomorrow, could be more and more the human brain. Making use of one's intelligence is always accompanied by positive emotion, which in turn further activates the intelligence. But, unfortunately, under present conditions workers of all levels live in fear, anxiety and stress rather than desire and motivation. The question of "basic human ecology" (quality of life) is, therefore, a major strategic factor. It is precisely the opposite to the mechanisms of exclusion that currently dominate our society: exclusion of young people through joblessness - but also exclusion through technology, as with the helplessness of older people or the poorly educated confronted with ticket dispensing machines or other automats. This is not idle theorizing, it corresponds to concrete facts. It is, for example, how some observers interpret the crisis at IBM. Because its programs were less 'human-friendly', it was shaken to its foundations by Apple and Microsof- though it seems since to have learnt its lesson.

We are on the verge of gaining access to a cornucopia of information and entertainment, but government regulation threatens to bottle up the new technology. Cable and telephone companies are both protected from competition and forbidden to enter new markets. The Clinton administration considers spending billions of taxpayers' dollars to build an "information superhighway" that private companies are champing at the bit to build at no cost to the government. Today's Information Revolution is driven by three smaller revolutions in microelectronic, digital, and optical technology. The microelectronic revolution, based on the transistor and then the microprocessor, has given us word processors, programmable VCRs, "featureful" home telephones, and personal computers, all of which have moved computing power away from a technical elite and closer to the average citizen. The digital revolution allows information in any form - even graphics and sound - to be processed by machines. And the fiber-optic revolution means that much more information can be transmitted simultaneously. Together, those technological changes are erasing the boundaries that have separated voice, video, text, and data communications and are making regulatory policy as obsolete as dial telephones and vacuum tubes. Regulations have been based on the outmoded notions of natural monopoly, spectrum scarcity, and captive audiences - none of which seem very compelling in the modern era of Telecompetition. Communications analyst Lawrence Gasman argues that the best way to gain the benefits of new information technology is not a government-backed "communications superhighway" but a policy of free markets, deregulation, propertyrights, and upholding the First Amendment. The most important role for government is to protect property rights, then stand back and watch as new technologies break through the boundaries of old regulations. Telecompetition is the comprehensive case for deregulating telecommunications. It discusses such key issues as deregulating the Baby Bells, spectrum auctions, First Amendment rights for broadcasters, and the national data highway. Telecompetition shows that bureaucrats have neither the knowledge nor the incentive to intelligently guide the Information Revolution. With the regulatory stranglehold on telecommunications actually tightening in some ways - such as the 1992 Cable Act - even as the free market struggles to bring modern technology to all our homes and offices, Telecompetition is a valuable argument for deregulation, First Amendment rights, and free markets.

The Senate Subcommittee on Science, Technology, and Space held a hearing in Billings, Montana, on rural America's access to the National Information Infrastructure (NII) and uses of NII in the provision of rural education and services. An Assistant Secretary of Commerce discussed the development of the Internet, problems in rural access to the Internet and other information technologies, a federal grant program that helps rural communities to gain such access, and the effects of deregulation on rural access. A researcher outlined the potential impact of technology on rural schools, including opportunities for new distance learning models, for new models of student learning, and for improving teacher development. A health services administrator described the Eastern Montana Telemedicine Network, which delivers specialist physician consultation through video conferencing, delivers mental health consultative services, offers continuing medical and higher education programming to rural communities, and provides community outreach and telebusiness opportunities to geographically isolated communities. The computer systems and telecommunications director at Salish Kootenai College discussed the problems of providing telecommunications technology to tribal colleges on American Indian reservations and related problems involving rural telephone cooperatives, inadequate telephone service, and obsolete laws governing the delivery of utility services. Representatives of communications companies discussed the potential role of NII in promoting rural development and delivering rural services, and the need for continued Congressional action to support telecommunications competition.
