description |
This book focuses on the institutional
innovations needed to lead the diffusion of the new
information and communication technology (ICT) that can help
transform developing economies into knowledge economies and
information societies. It shows that developing e-leadership
institutions is a long-term process, fraught with
uncertainties, but a process that remains at the heart of
implementing ICT-enabled development strategies. It focuses
on improving governance and the delivery of public services,
bridging economic divides, promoting social inclusion, and
drastically cutting transaction costs across the economy. It
seeks to exploit new sources of growth, employment, and
competitiveness by promoting the ICT and IT-enabled services
industries and the use of ICT by small enterprises to
network and compete. This book draws on the experience of
Sri Lanka to explore what is involved in moving from vision
to implementation of a comprehensive e-development
strategy-the e-Sri Lanka program. The focus is on building
local e-leadership institutions to drive this process and
leveraging ICT to transform government and empower
communities through e-government and e-society. Finally, to
allow sound selection and management of projects,
particularly in a national context, it is critical that the
program be free from pressure by government, private
companies, or others that may seek to use the program to
exercise their influence. |
