Contributions to this collection move past discussing an access problem – a binary division between ‘haves and have-nots’ – to analyse complex inequalities in the internet use, benefits, and opportunities of people in the Global South region. Using specific case studies, this book underlines how communities in the Global South are now attempting to participate in the information age despite high costs, a lack of infrastructure, and more barriers to entry. Contributions discuss the recent changes in the Global South. These changes include greater technological availability, the spread of digital literacy programs and computer courses, and the overall growth in engagement of people from different backgrounds, ethnicities, and languages in digital environments. This book outlines and evaluates the role of state and public institutions in facilitating these changes and consequently bridging the digital divide. . | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | digital divide; digital inequalities; global south; digital revolution; ICTs; digital equality | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-32706-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-32708-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-32706-4Series ISSN 2634-5978 Series E-ISSN 2634-5986 | issn_series | 2634-5978 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
