Abstract

The UK has not followed other countries in developing framworks of policies to guide their transition into information societies in a consistent and systematic way. Analyzes the current UK policies using a matrix which identifies 3 levels of policy (industrial, organization and social) and 4 cross cutting themes (information technology, information markets, human resources and legislation and regulation). Concludes that together, these various initiatives add up to a national strategy but it is one that lacks coordination and cohesion

Abstract

Countries all over the world are responding to profound technological change by developing policies that are intended to shape the development of information societies. Identifies 2 broadly divergent models: one is based on neo-liberal economic philosophies and emphasizes the importance of market led solutions, exploiting private capital; the other can be described as dirigiste, being based on a much greater degree of intervention and, consequently, placing more emphasis on the role of the state as a participant rather than as a facilitator. Asserts that the latter model seems more appropriate when dealing with a pervasive social, political, economic and cultural phenomenon

Abstract

Many countries are responding to technological change and producing information policies which have similar goals but differ in motivation. Mechanisms chosen to achieve the policy goals follow 2 distinct approaches: a neo-liberal, market led, Western model; and a dirigiste, interventionist, East Asian model. The effects of these policies vary in respect of the rates of social change and economic growth; degree of social cohesion; and the cultural impact. Concludes the neo-liberal policy mechanisms are inadequate, while the holistic approach of the dirigiste model seems more appropriate
